versus FinderPop and Quicksilver - Version: 2.1.1, 4/27/2008 06:05PM PST

So far, I find FinderPop more convenient. Items (apps, files, folders) I want to access are available via right-click contextual menu, as many as I want to stick in the FinderPop folder of aliases. Via FinderPop I can also right-click on something, slide over to an app in the contextual FinderPop menu to open it or to a folder in that menu. With the latter, a dialog box asks me if I want to move the original, copy, or alias of that item into the folder.
Quicksilver with a keyboard shortcut pops up and with starting to type the name of the item Quicksilver gives me a list of what it could be. I haven't explored Quicksilvers other praised options yet.
I haven't yet seen why RapidoStart would be more convenient than either one of those ... at least for my needs.
