I'm sure that
many of you use the quick launch bar that comes with windows. It's
the little part of your task bar that you can use to launch
programs that you use all of the time and it definately comes in
handy.
For me, the quick launch bar is just too small. As a matter of
fact, I would like it if my quick launch had larger icons and
stretched across my entire screen! Just think about it for a
second... If you could have a bar that had all of the main
programs, folders and utilities you use, you wouldn't need to
clutter up your desktop and there would be less need to hunt around
in the start menu, right?
Well, Today's free download has all
of those features and more. Today's program is called
ObjectDock and it will allow you
to do everything I described above, plus a couple extra goodies. My
favorite "extra" is the weather feature. It tells me the weather in
an easy to read format right on my object dock. Here is what it
looks like:
As
you can see, it automatically adds dock items like "my documents",
"my computer", "date", "weather" and "internet". If you want to add
something else, just drag it on and you are set. I love this
program!

you want to check out Object Dock, you can get it by clicking here.
Enjoy!
