Talking Turkish Names

Regular readers (and I know the birthdays of all of them) will remember that I had declared Namely as the winner of Mac App Launcher competition. Turns out it was a little premature. After a two-month fling with Namely, I’m back to LaunchBar. Namely was a lot of fun. You started styping the name of the app you wanted and it started dynamically matching it against the apps in the folders you specified. But the fun was short-lived when it began to hang for nearly a minute re-indexing itself or I don’t know what. Well, in the end it failed to deliver its main promise: Launch apps. I’m therefore back to my old and trusted LaunchBar. It’s quirky. I don’t like it’s interface. But at least it delivers what I need right now: Launching apps. Meanwhile, I’m on the look out for a better one.
