Launchy

Heard about this cool program called Launchy the other day. I've been using it today at work and I like it a lot! It is a quick way to run programs or open files on your computer without messing around with the start menu, desktop shortcuts, or folders. After you install it just hit <alt> + <space> and it pops up a box for you to type in. This is kind of like the run box (<windows key> + <r>) but it looks much better and is a lot smarter. You can pick from lots of great looking skins and customize where the app looks for files. It sort of makes a guess as to what you want too so if you open the same programs often it will pick those to show up first. Try it out!
