To all whom it may concern,

(This is fun I have never written something that I hope gets read but don't know if it ever will... kinda like a message in a bottle... I really should trademark that similie)

Because of the one and only Merlin Mann I have become an ravenous user of both Quicksilver (as any mac power-user should) and TextExpander.

I was intrigued by the recent MacBreak Minute about Sogudi...so I checked it out (only because Merlin said it would work with Quicksilver.)

Perhaps I have too quickly lauded my Quicksilver skills but I simply could not get it to work. I re-scanned my Catalog and still nothing... Perhaps the issue was due to Safari not being my default browser. Anyway...all of that ish to say this:

I have done in Quicksilver + TextExpander what I could not in Sogudi. I can do searches and link to commonly used queries (which will work even if I change to another browser b.t.w.) by creating some snippets in TextExpander.

The Trick: Quicksilver goes into "text" mode when you hit the period key. So put a period at the end of your TextExpander shortcut.

Sidenote: I spend copious amounts of time wishing I was witty enough to write something facetious. Having not arrived (at either wit or good grammar) I shall retire to my blanket by the sea.

If this made no sense please tell me.
