Create Your Own Customized Start Menu

Most of you have probably seen different program launchers on various sites. For those who are not familiar with them, program launchers are applications that allow you to choose your most-used or favorite programs and add their corresponding shortcuts to a custom menu.

This is very convenient as you won’t have to go searching through the default Windows start menu to open your favorites apps. This can also reduce clutter on your desktop since you can just have your regular list of apps on your launcher and remove their shortcuts from your desktop.

Sounds good right? The question now is, which one to use? There are a number of great program launchers but I’ll put the spotlight on one of the less known launchers.

8start Launcher is a free program launcher for Windows 2000, 2003, XP and Vista that will let you create your own customized start menu with the applications of your choice.
