LaunchBar users: Meet QuickSilver

As my long-time readers know, I'm a fan of LaunchBar, the keyboard-kowboy's application (and other things) launcher. Version 4 of that baby is currently in public beta. Now another user of LB has linked me up to QuickSilver, which currently is at Beta 28. And I'm converted. The software is currently free and fits Mac OS X like a glove. Give it a try!
