.: UNEASYsilence :. - How-to: Quicklaunch Applications/Files/Del.icio.us on Windows

Using AppRocket, we can now quickly locate, launch, or search for files on our Windows computers. I’ve found this especially handy for browsing Del.icio.us bookmarks.

If you were not already aware, I discovered the beauty, simplicity, and all-around wonderfulness of AppRocket before this post. The evidence is in the link to it from the sidebar. It’s over there. Now, go download before reading any further. Seriously, it’s awesome. I paid the $18 for it, and I have not been more happy with a purchase since I bought www.givemetherock.com.

Everybody with a blog and a PC should be jockin’ AppRocket like an NBA pundit on Dwyane Wade. Or a productivity blogger on David Allen.

The del.icio.us idea presented by UneasySilence is good enough that I went and downloaded Foxylicious so I could make it happen. I haven’t tried ActiveWords, which is what David Allen recommends, but AppRocket seems just as good, if not better. And for the frugal gourmet, it’s also cheaper. Either way, though, you need one of them…

You can make it - make it happen!
