Get Nifty with Launchy
One Windows tool I’ve been using for a few months now that I LOVE is Launchy. It’s a great way to launch apps without having weave through your Start | Programs menu. Now when I install new apps I don’t even care where in the Start menu they go because I can launch any app in there with Launchy by pressing “Alt-Space” and the small pop-up window appears which allows me to do a keyword search of all shortcuts in my Programs menu. And it’s free. Check it out. Any of you Mac users out there that run Quicksilver are smugly saying to yourself “Yeah, been there, done that.” And you Microsoft Zealots are saying, “So what, that’s in Vista (someday).” For the rest of us that want an easier way to launch our apps in Windows now, get Launchy.
