QuickPick is an application and document launcher designed to feel as if it's part of Mac OS X itself. Just drag and drop any number of applications or documents into the QuickPick window, and they'll only ever be a mouse click, flick, or key press away. Watch video tour.
QuickPick is a great place to store documents and applications that you use frequently. When it comes to launching, QuickPick replaces the roles of Finder, Spotlight, Stacks, and the Dock with one quick and easy interface, that is fast to use with the keyboard or the mouse.
QuickPick keeps any number
What's New
Version 2.0.9:
Dropped items now avoid overlapping/colliding with other items
Slightly tweaked the item's Finder color label appearance
Fixed file extensions showing unintentionally when Finder's "Show All File Extensions" is on
Added tricks to avoid other apps flashing their inactive window states when showing/hiding QuickPick
The best just got better. I've gone from MaxMenues to DragThing to OverFlow. QuickPick is the best for my uses. One of two things I have been needing just came about. And of the two this Drag/Drop ability was my priority. Now when QP can "remember" unmounted network shares, reconnecting just by clicking the QP item, I will be in launcher heaven.

QuickPick is definitely near the top of the list on memory use, but it hasn't noticeably slowed my system.
I just spent $40 to upgrade to Lion. $30 for Lion, and $10 for QuickPick. To me, QuickPick is the sane version of LaunchPad. Unless I'm missing some magic manual, everything I've read in terms of trying to work with LaunchPad tells me that (1) once I've added an app, I can't get rid of it unless it was an App Store purchase; (2) the only way to "get rid" of an app is to either create a folder and stash it in there or kill the dock and start LaunchPad from scratch. For that matter, QuickPick lets me include and open folders, not just apps. I can readily rename apps. Frankly, it's a much better thought out program than LaunchPad at this stage of the game. I'd like to be able to change the background colors, but that's a pretty small deal. Overall, I'm happy with the purchase.
Having only tried the demo for a few days, I have to say QuickPick works and looks great. I won't be using it anymore though, as it uses way too much RAM. Even after launching it and adding one or two things, it already used 125mb. That's way too much for what this program does.
"Reversed horizontal "scroll wheel" behavior so that on a magic mouse or touch pad, it's more like iOS flick."
I really wish there was an option to turn this back to the way it was before, its really annoying.

QuickPick is a great place to store documents and applications that you use frequently. When it comes to launching, QuickPick replaces the roles of Finder, Spotlight, Stacks, and the Dock with one quick and easy interface, that is fast to use with the keyboard or the mouse.
QuickPick keeps any number of applications just a mouse flick (or keyboard shortcut) away. When you activate QuickPick, all of the windows on your system will zoom off into the distance, and the documents and apps you want close by will fly right into view. It's like having a fourth dimension just for your files.
QuickPick displays files, folders, and application as clickable icons which can be arranged in any way you want by simply dragging them around, similar to the Desktop in Finder. To launch an application or open a document from inside of QuickPick, just click on it. You can also select and launch items with the keyboard.
To launch an application or open a document from inside of QuickPick, just click on it. QuickPick will hide itself when an item is launched or switch to another application.
To reactivate QuickPick, you can click on it in the Dock, press a keyboard shortcut, or flick the mouse cursor into the corner of your screen.
To close QuickPick, you can press the Escape key or just switch to another application. You can also launch an item in QuickPick using the keyboard. When one or more items are selected, simply press the Return key to launch them. Typing to select an item is also easy. Simply start typing and QuickPick will begin looking for the item, immediately showing you what it has found. Once you've narrowed in on the item you want to launch, just press the Return key.
You can add files into QuickPick at any time by drag and drop.
To remove items select them, and press the Delete key.

The programmer finds that there is no problem?
Very damaging!
