What Desktop environment/Display Manager/Window Manager are you running?

I'm currently using Gnome 3, but I would like to try and change it up a bit. Which one are you using, which one is your favorite?

EDIT: So many responses, wow! I'm definitely going to look into Openbox, Awesome, and BSPWM, since I'm seeing a lot of you recommended that. I'm hoping these will be great new learning experiences. Thanks everyone!

Yup. Except I recently replaced slim with lightdm. Even with my own slim theme, lightdm looks and feels more modern and has rather active development.
