The first in an n-part series on "How I Use Quicksilver".
I have a trigger set up to take whatever I have highlighted in my system, and put that in the first pane of quicksilver. (It happens to be Cmd+/ )
From there, I have to type 'sho' which will select 'ShortenUrl.rb'. (It took one trial to get quicksilver to learn that.)
Finally, I hit enter, and wait for a fraction of a second, and quicksilver comes quickly back with the shortened URL.
I can effortlessly copy this to the clipboard for later use. Or, I can then use this to post to a chatroom within colloquy [or emacs] if I so desire. Look for that in a later post.
Average time saved: 3 seconds.
When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.
