I’m a Quicksilver user and I have started to use Skylight and would say it is the closest to Quicksilver I’ve found for PC. Skylight’s Windows 7 compatibility is excellent as well. This program is by CandyLabs and has replaced AppRocket.

thanx, Colibri, is well programmed , does the job well,, I am linux user who got used to gnome-do, which is fantastic btw, and has alot of potential to fit into many customized actions but Colibri is good alternative as well,

Sean: You are missing the point. People are not looking for mac-like ways to launch programs, they are trying to find a substitute for Quicksilver.. but why do I even assume that a troll can read?

Go back to 4chan or get a life

SuperLauncher should be mentioned. SuperLauncher launches applications with hotkeys or one click of the mouse but the twist about it is that you add new shortcuts by drag and drop. You simlpy drag and drop applications, websites, files, or folders, and wizards guide you through adding hotkeys or one-click shortcuts.

I use it and I recommend it.

You can find SuperLauncher here: http://www.pcwinsoft.com/superlauncher/download.asp http://www.pcwinsoft.com/superlauncher/

Best, Alex

Gnome DO for Linux fit my need as a Quicksilver replacement.

Very nice!

Don’t you love it when blogs post about blogs that blogs blog and that their blog included more then what you are blogging about (“His list includes:”)?

ITS RETARDED!

google would have found me HIS blog instead of yours, but just because you are a company that puts effort (and money) into having better search results i get shown this. thanks a bunch. The internet is a better place with blogs posting about blogs (not).

Checked the sites and so far Launchy looks pretty sleek and does a good job. It is the only Windows app on the list that is open source, which is important for me (control freak), so think I found my match.
