In the comments of last week’s screencast, Aaron asked about a way of creating iTunes Playlists through Quicksilver. So I thought I’d take that as an opportunity to share a couple of great Apple Scripts that have been created expressly for this reason.
You’ll see the websites in the screencast, but just for [...]
Got another screencast for ya’all this week. I wanted to take a step back from some of the more advanced features and tricks. Today I focus on something that doesn’t require special settings, plugins, or any interaction with the preferences screen whatsoever.
Loading items into Quicksilver focus is relatively trivial. Basically, select [...]
One of my new year’s resolutions was to try to do a screencast per week here on The Apple Blog. Second week into the year and I nearly blew that one! It’s just been a busy week, I emerge triumphant. (at least until I run out of ideas for screencasts…) However [...]
Here in The Apple Blog community, there was a mention about the power of using some of the scripts that are accessible through Quicksilver. So I put together a quick screencast showing how to make sure those options are enabled and what some of the more useful items are.

Well, I’ve finally gotten the next Quicksilver Screencast put together. I’ve changed gears a few times, and it’s prolonged the release. Sorry about that. But hopefully we’re on course to start this the right way, and build upon it.
Instead of doing a back to basics type of screencast, I’ve chosen to do [...]
Let’s try this again.
Here’s the full video, starting with the setup and an explanation.
Then you’ll see a demo of selecting a file in the Finder, launching Quicksilver with the selected file loaded, selecting the Email Directly action, and typing the name of the recipient.
Full Size mp4 (Quicktime) 9.8mb
I realize this is really small. I [...]

Watch for a nice, full featured video download to come… In the meantime:
THE DEMO
