Quickfire add-on opens your Mac apps from Firefox

There are a lot of slick ways to launch an application on a Mac. OS X's built-in Spotlight does the trick fairly quickly, and a lot of people swear by Quicksilver. If you're a Firefox addict, though, you might like having the ability to open your apps from the Firefox URL bar. Quickfire does just that.

Once you install it, app names will autocomplete in the Firefox Awesome Bar, just like URLs you've bookmarked or visited before. For my money, you might as well get the power of Quicksilver, which opens from anywhere and does more than launch applications. But if you're in Firefox all the time, and you have to be able to do absolutely everything from the browser, Quickfire might be worth a look.
