Start++

@windows@

Start++ [via] takes Vista’s start menu search box that much closer to Quicksilver by letting you define commands and abbreviations to open any kind of programs or web searches: type “w steve jobs” to open the Steve Jobs page on Wikipedia; “g copycat” for a Google search; “play britney” to launch an m3u playlist; etc. All of that just a Windows key press away.

Simpler than Humanized Enso or whatever else shareware passes for Quicksilver clones on Windows; pretty cool assuming it works if advertised.

Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.ff00aa.com to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.
