There are many pretenders to the throne but I stand by LaunchBar.

A full reboot “fixed” this for me as well. I’m hopelessly dependent on this feature and don’t know how people survive without it.
I can’t recommend this app highly enough. This release has a security fix, make sure to upgrade if you’re using 4.2 beta 1.
Recently, I’ve chatted with a few folks that also use Tasks Pro™/Tasks and LaunchBar as part of their toolset. I have a number of Tasks Pro™ shortcuts I use with LaunchBar, some of which the others weren’t aware were possible. First the obvious ones: Bookmark for creating a new task (LaunchBar shortcut: nt) Bookmark for…
Awesome, awesome, awesome. Thanks Eric.
I just registered LaunchBar. If you are a Mac user and you consider yourself a "power user", this is a must have utility. It can launch applications, web site bookmarks, documents… you activate it by hitting command+space bar, then type the first few letters of whatever you want to access and hit return. Get it,…
Quite simply, the reaction to Capsule has far exceeded my hopes. I’m thrilled. As Capsule is a product in a nascent category, my biggest concern was that people wouldn’t immediately see the benefits it could provide. That clearly has not been the case. Capsule appears to be a solution to a problem people (at least…

I have to do basic arithmetic on a fairly regular basis. My tool of choice for the last few years has been LeanCalc. It does the job well for the most part, but it doesn’t ignore non 0-9 characters, I would commonly use it to calculate a percentage of a dollar value. I’d paste in…
I guess this is a pet peeve of mine, but why don’t any of the major browsers open a requested URL in the frontmost tab if that tab is empty (about:blank)? Camino got this right years ago, but Firefox, Safari and Chrome still open up a new tab next to the empty one. I can’t…

I’ve started building a list of applications that fill me with joy. LaunchBar – can’t imagine life without it. xScope – I don’t even use it that much, but when I do… so awesome. Pukka – I’ve been using Delicious as a central data store more of late. These aren’t all “must-have” apps, nor are…
Over the last five years I’ve heavily used MailTemplate and shadowClipboard. Both are great utilities, and neither works right on Snow Leopard (and no upgrades in sight). As a result, I’ve found workarounds. Rather than move to different utilities for these features, I’ve tried to simplify. I’m already hopelessly dependent on LaunchBar, so coming up…

Since the Air is a little light on hard drive space I’ve been a little bit picky about what I install on it. It’s a good way to figure out what your “must have” apps are – this is what made the cut for me: LaunchBar – this is the very first thing I installed.…
