Transmission Remote GTK is a cross-platform tool for controlling Transmission Bittorrent Client remotely, through its RPC interface.
The application is very similar to Transmission Remote GUI in terms of Bittorrent functionality, however, Transmission Remote GTK integrates better with the GNOME desktop (since it's a GTK app; sadly it's GTK2 only), comes with torrent added/downloaded notifications as well as tray / Ubuntu AppIndicator support.

"Transmission-Unity-Launcher" is a python script that provides Unity launcher integration for Transmission BitTorrent client. For now, the script displays the number of downloads and total download progress but in the future it might get more features, like menu items to control the speed, start or stop torrents.
Installation
For now, the script only works with Ubuntu 11.04.
The script page provides installation instructions, but to make it easier, I've added exact command line instructions below and all you have to do is copy/paste the commands below in a terminal to get it working (before proceeding, make sure Transmission is installed):
sudo apt-get install python-gobject python-transmissionrpc git-core
cd
git clone https://github.com/kriomant/transmission-unity-launcher.git
sudo cp transmission-unity-launcher/transmission-unity-launcher.py /usr/local/bin/
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/transmission-unity-launcher.py
mkdir -p ~/.local/share/applications
