A thought: we get a lot of submissions like this (which, by and large, are all quite useful.) I wonder if there's an opportunity to consolidate (and vote/rank?) these sort of productivity/workflow/life efficiency improvers. Maybe something StackExchange-like (or Reddit-like)? Doesn't have to be super-complicated - just a list, a rank, a chance to vote, and maybe to comment.
Anyone done this yet? If not - here's an idea for someone to work on :)
I'm not sure I understand how this hack my workflow. Some of them are neat life hack enablers, but my workflow doesn't actually depend on the weather, nor on how many emails I've send or received...
Quicksilver is the only tool on this list that seems to directly relate to workflow.
I guess I use the term "workflow" more loosely than some. I consider keeping on top of my finances to be a workflow. Same with following my app sales, etc.
I agree that Dark Sky is the loosest relation, but if I know it's raining, it prevents me from doubling back to grab an umbrella, which used to happen to me all the time.
If the author is only using Quicksilver to find documents and launch apps, why use it at all, when you can just Cmd+Space and use Spotlight to do the same thing?
