This killer app has the potential to stop me from migrating to Linux..... and I am serious

For a long time, I had been making a concerted effort to move to a Linux Desktop. Linux Desktop offered me everything that I needed or had on the windows side...... till I discovered Lauchy.

Launchy is a great Windows utility that allows you to open files, programmes, folders etc. without having to search for them. All you have to do is press Alt+ space bar and then first few letters of the fileor app that you want and there you have it. Its one of the most impactful productivity tool that I have seen in the last few months. And its free to use.



Hats off to Launchy and Josh Karlin

I hope there is a similar killer app on Linux side as well. I have used this for a few months and I can't live without it. I can't see a reason why Microsoft would not add this to its OS soon.

You must try this tool if you are a windows user.

Choosing a WIKI for my office team

I want to install a WIKI in my office. With so many options, it is a bit difficult to decide which one to install.

Initially, I had a very rough idea of the parameters that I should compare. But then I came across Wikimatrix. It allows you to compare the features of a number of Wikis.

It has a nice 'choice wizard'. Questions asked by this 'choice wizard' gave me a broader idea of the parameters that I should compare. I used the wizard but was confused when it gave me a choice of over 20 wikis that matched by requirements. However, it provides extensive details about each of the wikis.

I am now planning to check out, DekiWiki and SocialText
