No, I think it’s really broken. I tried in in Firefox and Safari and it wouldn’t load in either, and when I tried downloading it Quicktime wouldn’t recognize it as a .mov file.

the tutorial video works in Safari but not in Firefox. However, was able to download it by rightclicking on the link. Thanks.

Thanks for putting the time in to develop this webcast. It was a big help. I got turned on to Quicksilver just yesterday when I did a search for “mastering the mac keyboard”. I converted to Mac a year ago, but only recently learned how powerful Spotlight is, only to find out there was an even better program. I was in the middle of increasing my applications and file launching speed using Spotlight, and had created a number of alias’ for all my main apps. Then I excluded “applications” in Spotlight preferences to clean up the Spotlight display list. (Since I was using only apps alias’ named mostly using just 2 digits/letters). For example “PS” for Photoshop, or “WD” for Word. These code name alias’ allowed for lightning quick changes between apps (much faster than alt/tabing when switching between multiple apps). I expected to be able to do the same with Quicksilver, however all my attempts at getting Quicksilver to find these alias’ have not worked. They don’t show up at all. Is there something I can do in the custom section of preferences to remedy this?

“the beginner’s walkthrough” (quicksilver) Doesn’t appear to be working. I get the quicktime symbol and the status says it loading but it never does.

Great video, thanks.
The link for the deminimizer module seems to have gone dead, could you share your’s or do you have a link to a working download of the deminimizer?
Thanks.

Great video. Helps a lot.
Question that is not related to QS.
Which application do you use, when you use this virtual flashligth in your demo to darken the rest while lighting the items that you talk about.

Hi,

I’ve notive in your screencast that when you’re about to save the new TextMate file you just created, there’s a Spotlight entry box attached to the Save window. That’s very convenient for entering tags before saving a file. Can you elaborate on that one ? How is it done? Thanks a lot for a great screencast by the way.
