We have already featured here (and here) at AlternativeFront.com few application launchers that can make the most out of your boring Windows desktop. Here’s another dock application whose concept is quite intriguing and at the same time interesting. It is called Circle Dock.
The rationale behind Circle Dock is that the dock should be at where your mouse is instead of you having to move your mouse to the dock like with other programs. This is made possible by making the dock a circular or spiral shape so that it can be located anywhere even at the edge of the screen. The off-screen portions of the dock can easily be triggered by simply scrolling with your mouse wheel or arrow keys.
With Circle Dock, you can drag and drop your files, folders, and shortcuts onto a circular or spiral dock. The dock can be rotated with either your mouse wheel or the keyboard arrow keys. You have the option to change the image shown for the icons and skins as they are compatible with icons and skins for Rocket Dock, Object Dock.
Here’s a video on how Circle Dock works;
You can run the program from a portable USB memory stick and have it point to the documents on the USB memory stick. The ability to synchronize the links on the dock with the files, folders, and shortcuts on your desktop or other folders in real-time is also a great feature. The dock can easily be called upon by pressing a hotkey. This unique application launcher works on computers with multiple monitors and is available in several languages.
