Note: This article was published while I was in my early 20s. I was much younger and dumber. Please don't hold it against me. One of the perils of having a 20+ year old website!

When I first got my Mac, my friend told me to immediately download QuickSilver, citing it will ‘change the way you work.’ A few weeks in to really using it and I have realized it as a very useful app, and I feel as if I haven’t even scratched the surface.

Since using it I have realized it not only as quick and easy way to open programs, but as a pretty quick and easy file manager as well. Much faster than opening Finder and navigating through my documents that way. However, I feel there is so much more. There has got to be a reason LifeHacker has dedicated an entire category to it, right?

Over the next couple of days (probably weeks, looking at my schedule), I will be testing some of the better functions of QuickSilver. Of course if you have any suggestions for me, I am always willing to listen.
