Multibar

Multibar is a Ticno project designed to be “..cool and useful for everyone.” Multibar works on the standard drag and drop method for adding items to the dock. At installation, Multibar indexes your system to make finding files and programs easier by incorporating those results into its ‘instant search’ feature. Simply type what you’re searching for and Multibar finds it for quick access.

Features

Placement customization allows users to determine the location of Multibar, whether it be aligned vertically along the side or horizontally across the top of the desktop.  Skins make for a unique way of decorating the background and matching your personality.  Multibar also has widgets like the weather one displayed below.  Additional features include animated zoom for icons, hotkey control and other appearance settings.

Multibar works with Windows XP, Vista and 7. The dock is a great way to clean up a cluttered desktop or add cool looking effects to enhance your computing experience. Windows 7 users may not get the most benefit from Multibar because of 7’s improved taskbar, but it may be worth a shot if the taskbar has become filled and unsightly.

Sliderdock

Sliderdock is a ring-like shaped application launcher. Applications are added to the dock by simple drag and drop method and are accessed by using the scroll-wheel on your mouse or through keyboard shortcuts. The dock can be customized in terms of icon size, location of the dock, visibility and other visualization features. Icons can be of various formats including jpeg, png and gif making customization relatively easy.

Sliderdock installed seamlessly in our evaluations, but does require ‘.NET Framework 3.5 SP1’ so be sure to have that installed before proceeding. Most systems will already have it installed by default. The dock is non-invasive, intuitively moves to the background when necessary and comes to the foreground when needed.

If you’ve longed for a more visually appealing desktop like those of Mac or Linux, then you may want to give Sliderdock a try. We feel XP and Vista users in particular will benefit from the dock, while Windows 7 users will likely view it as an additional utility to compliment the improved taskbar.
