None Better: The Best Mac File Launcher. Ever.

Your preference between apps like LaunchBar and QuickSilver versus DragThing is simply a matter of whether you navigate via the keyboard or the mouse.  I’m a mouser, and DragThing is the cat’s meow.  (Well, maybe that’s a poor metaphor…)  I have DragThing set up with drawers that are accessible via tabs along the right side of my screen.  The tabs are labeled “Folders,” “Utilities,” “Multimedia,” “Graphics,” etc.  To choose an application, I simply move my cursor over the proper tab and do a quick double-click.  I can sit back in my chair and have my right hand do all the work, several feet away from the keyboard.  DT will also permit keyboard shortcuts for apps, folders, or files.  The choice is yours.
