Can anyone please inform me on the advantages of using GNOME interface for my desktop?

Yes, I think it is great, too.

It's all a matter of taste really. Running KDE vs. Gnome is really down to your preferences as neither one has a serious advantage over the other. Gnome is one of the bigger desktop environments and uses more RAM than a lighter window manager like say Xfce. I find a good hint as to what to use is to look at the applications you use. If you use mostly Gnome or GTK applications Gnome might be a better choice for practical reasons. If you use all KDE/QT applications then KDE.

A good idea is to use the desktop that ships by default with your linux distribution. It will likely have more attention paid to it and will perform/look better. If you are offered a choice then unless hard drive space is at a premium I would install a few and try them out until you are happy enough with one.

What might be an advantage for some might be a disadvantage for you, so you really have to try Gnome to decide for yourself if there are any advantages from your own perspective.

I didn't care much for Gnome during the first 8 or 9 years that I've used Linux, but ever since KDE4 was released I've taken a real liking to Gnome, and it's now my default desktop. To me, it just feels lighter weight than KDE4, much more stable, and easier to use in the long run.

Best of luck with your own experimentation with Gnome.
