Open Thread: Quicksilver podcast questions
Merlin Also | Jul 28 2006
Merlin on MacBreak: Intro to Quicksilver The response to the MacBreak on Quicksilver has been enthusiastic to say the least. Thanks to everyone who's sent emails saying they now "finally 'get' Quicksilver." That's really cool to hear. Based on lots of the messages, though, there's still lots of questions about setting up Quicksilver, loading plugins, and configuring things the way you like -- especially as seen in the video. As we've observed on the site many times, the ramp-up to full-on Quicksilver configuration can be a bitch. I want to try and route all the questions and answers into this one thread if I can. So, there's a few links below that I [="Red"]REALLY[/] encourage you to explore thoroughly before asking questions (I swear most all the answers are out there), but if you have a question not answered, the 43 Folders hive mind and I can try to help you out. Ask away (after you've really really looked for the answer on your own, okay?). My access over the next few days is limited, so any help from the Quicksilver studs out there is greatly appreciated! Good Quicksilver links:
Quicksilver power users: feel free to chime in as well with your favorite links, tutorials, and responses to questions from the new folks. Many thanks in advance. 51 Comments

Best Reference or Tips for Potential "Switchers"?Submitted by rweisman on July 28, 2006 - 11:20am.
Hi there, I am intrigued by Quicksilver, but I have been using LaunchBar for years and am very used to it. I feel perhaps like a Windows user deciding whether to take the Mac plunge. Are there any tutorials or tips for people like me, a sort of starting place? Maybe it's just a matter of diving in, but if anybody who used to use LaunchBar has thoughts on where to start, you know a sort of reference point -- or perhaps an idea of where one can wade in before diving in, I would be much obliged. Thanks! Robyn » POSTED IN:
