Web searches with Quicksilver
Authored by: macskeeball on Thu, Jun 7 2007 at 10:39AM PDT
Quicksilver can also do web searches from any app via a hotkey activated interface. It's not just a Butler thing.

As someone who has used each for extended periods of time (Butler longer than Quicksilver), I can say that Butler is easier to grasp initially, but Quicksilver is a lot more powerful once you actually take the time to learn it in depth and start using the plugins. Many of the things that require using an AppleScript to accomplish with Butler don't require one with Quicksilver, and as a result Quicksilver is much more dynamic.
