I normally have 4 virtual workspaces, but blackbox && bbkeys let me add
another at the touch of a (ok, technically two) button(s). 

I have usually had one window for irc when I am online, one for netscape
(to be replaced by galeon/skipstone when I get time), one for emacs/gnus
(to be replaced by slrn and mutt), one for xmms/gkrellm + etc. When I
need to do some editing where it is convenient to have more workspaces
up, I simply create another, and delete it afterwards.
