My Favorite Mac App

update Quicksilver is much better, and completely free.

Quicksilver LaunchBar is the best tool I've seen, on any system, to minimize switching between the keyboard and mouse.

I like how it's so usable "out of the box", how it stays out of the way and how "smart" it is.

The free trial version is good enough to get an idea if you want it; I haven't been nagged to buy.

(No, I haven't used Quicksilver yet; their busted website turned me off to the idea.)

While their website isn't the best, trust me, Quicksilver will change how you work with your Mac. I played with LaunchBar, and it's nice. QuickSilver is in a whole 'nother class. With the combination of Applescript, QS and KinklessGTD, I've seen a huge change in my behavior with the computer and a substantial increase in my producitivty.

Yeah? Maybe I'll give it another look, then.

No more comments! Either someone has violated Godwin's Law, I'm tired of the discussion or, most likely, the ten-week window has closed. You can, however, contact me through email.
