RM: You've made QuickSilver
Don't know if you've seen this already, but you have a search item in Quicksilver's Web Search module all to yourself. You're in the Other category since you defy categorization.Because, you know, you don't get enough mail already... :)
Enjoy,

This was so amusing I had to ping the developer of Quicksilver about it, who also had no real clue how it got in there. All that's known is it's been there since version one, and it's referencing the old drunkenbatman.com site URL, which still works but is forever in danger of going away.
Quicksilver dubs itself "An evolving framework for accessing and manipulating many forms of personal data," and it's really hard to describe QS to someone who hasn't experienced it. However, if you were going try, the words "interesting" and "innovative" would probably come up, even by those who don't take to it or just get confused by it.
It's worth noting that the author, Nicholas Jitkoff, redeemed a Golden Ticket yesterday from Pittsburgh and will be on the panel for Evening at Adler, and the original roster was updated a few minutes ago to reflect it.

This is awesome to see on the front page of DrunkenBlog. I made some major improvements to that Quicksilver page a while back, and I'm almost sure I added that link.

By the way, the search box in your sidebar uses drunkenbatman.com, too.

I still think LaunchBar fits my needs better than QuickSilver. I see LanuchBar more 'apple-like', if there is such a thing. Maybe it doesn't have quite as many features as QS, but it does what it does in a more elegant and intuitive way.
Having said that, searching drunkenblog is one feature I do also have set-up in LaunchBar :-)

I don't see how you can call QS "innovative". Launchbar was innovative, QS is a clone.

*sigh* ... truly spoken like somebody who hasn't even tried QS
Does he know it will be recorded? Was he not super secret about his identity?
