KDE Activities are a little bit like virtual desktops. If you set up 4 virtual desktops you can tab between them and keep specific stuff on each desktop. With Activities you hit a command key and you get a new set of desktops. It's almost like logging into a new, empty session but you can switch back to a previous activity easily. I used to use the same laptop at work as at home, so I added a Home activity. When I was done with work I'd hit [windows key] tab and work would disappear from my desktop and all my home stuff would be there.
