KIO is just an awesome piece of technology that makes it so easy to just create file browsing (among things) from a lot of different protocols. Bad thing is that it depends on other KDE libs at the moment thus making it not really feasible for people that want to use it without KDE. Though that "minor" annoyance should go away since KIO is scheduled to only have Qt as it's dependency (right David?). KArchive is also awesome simply because Qt doesn't provide anything alike. There is "quazip" but it's not as good. KIdleTime is also a neat tech thing to use if one needs it.
