Launchy – Quicker Application Launching
Author: Mitch Keeler
Now doing a lot of work at one time means that I have to have quick and easy access to a number of programs, links and documents at all times. Now this might sound like it would be a little easier to manage than it actually is, but don’t let it fool you. Multi-tasking is a hard job. For help getting things launched from my computer though, I do have a shortcut for you to try. That shortcut is called Launchy.
Launchy is a small program that makes launching anything as easy as hitting a few keys on the keyboard. It is a free Windows utility designed to help you forget about your start menu, the icons on your desktop, and even your file manager. You get everything you need in just one search box.
I guess you could almost think of it as what might happen if Google had a child with your personal computer. Well, maybe that isn’t exactly the visual you wanted to wake up to this morning. The point of the matter is – is that it works, and works well.

Give it a shot and let me know what you think. Also if you have a better alternative, give us a link in the comments to it as well. Always willing to give new things a shot.
