It has been a while since i last wrote. Longer since the last time I recommend a program. These are the two (2) programs that I would recommend for Windows user:
- Launchy - it would be the similar to the search function in Microsoft Windows Vista or Finder in Mac OS X. Since I have Vista on my laptop, I fell in love with the search function. With Launchy, I don’t need to browse for the programs in my start menu anymore. I just use the shortcut Alt+Spacebar and just type in the name of the program. It even catalog my bookmarks from my Firefox. I have been using it for quite some time now, and I love it, a lot.
- DeskSpace - ever heard of multiple desktop from Linux or even the new Mac OS X Leopard? I really wished that Windows made it in their OS. Not even Vista have this function. Started wishing for this function while I was testing Ubuntu last year. Then last week while I was in the Chris Pirillo’s live chat, the community recommended this program. Have been using it for a week now and have not encountered any problem(s) yet. Currently using it on both my XP and Vista machine. You have to pay it though, there’s an older, free software which you can find it here.
These are two programs that I highly recommend it for Windows user. It really improves my productivity when I am using my computer. So guys, give it a try and tell me what you think.

I even use Launchy on my Vista machine. Because i think it is more powerful than the Vista search function.
