So this is the first of soon to be many “Randumb Downloads”.. Every so often when I come across a completely free awesome application, I’ll let you know all about it and where to get it.

RocketDock

RocketDock is a smoothly animated, alpha blended application launcher. It provides a nice clean interface to drop shortcuts on for easy access and organization. With each item completely customizable there is no end to what you can add and launch from the dock.

Now with added Taskbar support your minimized windows can appear as icons on the dock. This allows for better productivity and accessibility.

Watch it in action:

  • Minimize windows to the dock
  • Real-time window previews in Vista

  • Auto-hide and Popup on mouse over
  • Positioning and layering options
  • Fully customizable
  • Completely Portable
  • ObjectDock Docklet support
  • Compatible with MobyDock, ObjectDock, RK Launcher, and Y’z
    Dock skins

  • A friendly user base :)
  • And best of all… its FREE!!!

Icons & Docklets:
The default icons are pretty cheesy.. For all of my dock icons I search Deviantart.com. If you’ve been searching for THAT dock icon everywhere but can’t find it.. chances are you’ll be able to find it at DeviantArt. (hint: use the search bar!)

As far as docklets go, you can find them all over the place because objectdock’s docklets are compatible. There’s docklets for a range of things from laptop battery meters, to current local weather, to recycling bins.. You can find a good variety of docklets at Wincustomze.org.

  6. so when do we get to see more of theses random downloads??

  7. knew about that for ages…ive had it installed on my compy with my mac skin for about 2 years now, its cool for 5 minutes. then you realise how lame it is. and way to attack Ideal eric, considering he really didn’t rip off the most common script ever, he made it up tooth and nail. someone needs to get off his high horse and realise that just because someone else thought of something doesnt mean they stole it from you.
