Terminal overlay ubuntu 12.04


Is there any type of application or tweak I can do to make terminal open with `~ key in an overlay on the desktop?

I am getting back into linux for my main desktop and been looking for something like this.

Tilda, Guake, Yakuake

Personally i prefer Guake.

Yakuake is best suited in the KDE desktop.
Guake with a GTK based desktop (xfce, gnome, etc)
