You better sit down; Quicksilver is back

Quicksilver Quicksilver is one of those iconic pieces of software than can actually fan the flames of platform envy. The ability to press a hotkey and start typing what you want without even being exact is liberating. I personally prefer LaunchBar for several reasons, but one reason was the lack of further Quicksilver updates.

The updates are flowing once again. Alcor has returned and he’s currently in the middle of rewriting Quicksilver’s frameworks. This is great news. Some very innovative things were going on with Quicksilver and its large plugin community.

The comments at 43 Folders seem to indicate this new bug fix version is actually, quite ironically, very buggy. At the same time, the recommendations for LaunchBar are also rolling in there. Anyway, it might be time to revisit it.
