Product Description:

The original dock designed to tidy up your Macintosh desktop. It puts all your documents, folders, and applications just a single click away. Highly flexible, it allows multiple docks, each customised to suit your exact needs.

CNET Editor's Review:
DragThing takes the desktop dock concept several steps further by combining the best of the dock with the Finder, resulting in a flexible and powerful utility. DragThing allows you to create your own organizational schemes within the Mac OS environment, giving you easy access to your favorite applications, folders, URLs, servers, and just about anything else you would like to have at your fingertips.

I've been using DT for eons.

I think this software and its developer should be used by other developers as benchmarks for quality, usefulness and reliability.

I've never had any issues with this software and its customisation means I can set it up just how I like it and just get on with using it.

Outstanding.

I'm using DT for 10+ years ... in my opinion is one of the best examples of useful, elegant, very-difficult-to-live-without applications. Timely and effectively updated when needed, no useless 'upgrades'. Thank you!
