Dock organizers

Here’s a neat idea: programs that sit in your dock to give access to all the apps in a group. So far, there are four of them for iLife, iWork, Adobe and Microsoft Office.

Why not just create a folder and place aliases in it? For one thing it would look just like another folder and it would have to sit to the right of the dividing line with the rest of the folders. These dock organizers have readily identifiable icons and sit to the left with the rest of the programs.

In the end it’s one of those cases where you’ll think they’re kinda cool or kinda pointless.

  1. And even better, Sam will actually create specific dock icons for your own personal needs!

    Just make a donation, tell him what you want in the icon and the program names, and send him an icon, and he will make YOU a custom dock icon!

    YAY SAM!

  2. I just use Apple-space (spotlight) when I want to get to word, or excel, or other apps I don’t use that often.

  3. Has anyone used Quicksilver? It’s a zero-clutter alternative to fumbling through your folders. Hit ctrl=space and you can launch anything with 1 to 2 keystrokes- quick as a bunny. Even faster than Spotlight I’ve found.
