If you are a Mac user you have probably already discovered Quicksilver, and its amazing ability to reduce the time taken to perform just about any task. Noticed a tweet today that Simon Fell recently created a Quicksilver plugin that lets you search Salesforce, and upload a document in a few keystrokes.
If you are a Quicksilver user, go grab the plugin now, and shave more time off your day which you can devote to creating cool Force.com apps.
