Terminator is a very interesting terminal emulator that lets you use multiple terminals in the same window (split view). It supports notifications (through 'watch for activity' plugin), tabs, can save / restore custom layouts and more.
The latest Terminator 0.96 re-adds a so called "quake mode" feature (more info and how to launch Terminator using a custom layout, here). Other features in the latest Terminator 0.96 include:
- Unity support for opening new windows
- Searching by regular expression
- Improve and extend drag&drop support to include more sources of text, e.g. Gtk file chooser path buttons
- Add a plugin to watch a terminal for inactvity
- Add configuration to remove terminal dimensions from titlebars
- many bug fixes

Terminator is a very cool terminal Emulator for GNOME. It supports tabs and notifications, you can get multiple terminals in the same window and many other cool features.
Terminator 0.96 is supposed to get "Quake mode" (like Guake or Yakuake; this mode lets you hide/unhide the terminal using a keyboard shortcut in a Quake-like drop-down), but it's been almost an year since the last release and this version still hasn't been released so I've built Terminator from BZR in the WebUpd8 unstable PPA so you can use the new "Quake mode" feature even though version 0.96 hasn't been released yet.
Since this is not a stable version, you may find bugs! However, the new Quake mode feature worked well in my tests.
