I'm not sure what you mean by "terminal". The official gnome terminology seems to be that I have 6 workspaces. But most of them indeed have gnome-terminals.

There are workspaces for web browsing, for irc, for studying related pdf:s, for my own pdf:s, for programming, for mplayer. I don't understand how some people survive alive without these.

Yes, I noticed the workspaces, too, but it's not surprising to find people with multiple workspaces. :)
