Quicksilver

I've removed advertising from most of this site and will eventually clean up the few pages where it remains.

While not terribly expensive to maintain, this does cost me something. If I don't get enough donations to cover that expense, I will be shutting the site down in early 2020.

If you found something useful today, please consider a small donation.

If you are a Mac user, you are going to like this. Download from http://blacktree.com/apps/quicksilver/ and install in the usual way (open the dmg file and then drag the icon to your Applications folder).

Quicksilver is still in beta, but don't let that stop you: it's quite usable now. Usable for what?

Well.. now don't start rolling your eyes.. it's a launcher. But it's not just a launcher, and I think it's better than Launchbar. Give it a try.

Update: I like Spotlight better..it is no longer a resource hog and it reacts quickly. There is no reason to replace it.
