Launchy , the download of the day
Today I am going to share a little productivity tip with you a ‘la 43 Folders by showing you one of my favorite apps . It is one of the million attempts to clone Quicksilver … Everyone knows that none can come close in the other areas … but I think this one equals it in the app launching area … if you don’t follow … I am talking about an application launcher … It is something that with a key combination it pops up a box in which you can type the first few letters of an application then it will launch it for you…and the one that is my very favorite is called Launchy since I have had it my productivity has increased 5x … How can this be you say … well here is a screenshot of my desktop
Yes that is my desktop. where are the icons ? There are no icons. This is because I don’t need them . Why ? This little thing right here.
One tap of alt-space and up comes this. It is called Launchy. Besides this one it also comes with tons of other cool skins if you are on windows this is a must have app. But WAIT There is MORE if you call within the next whenever it will even be opensource. That is right , launchy is completely free and opensource. There you have no excuse.
