If you're on a Mac and haven't expanded your horizons beyond Spotlight, you owe it to yourself to check out Quicksilver, a free, open sourced launchbar app that can prove very handy once you've gotten over the learning curve. The app has just been updated with a slew of new features including automatic Plugin updates (see their blog for a full rundown), and has also been optimized for Mac OS X Lion. Quicksilver has an interesting history. The app was originally developed by Blacktree Software, which ceased active development several years ago ?�but not before open-sourcing their code. Since then it's seen periodic updates, but they've been few and far between, to the point that some longtime fans gave up�and looked elsewhere. But in the last six months the app has seen a resurgence of sorts, as updates and blog updates from the team at QSApp have been much more frequent. The site's tagline? "Quicksilver Lives".
