So everyone is oh-so-familiar with the Mac’s beautiful icon dock featured here. Unfortunately Windows never came with anything as remotely fascinating. There is the Quick Launch bar which serves its purpose with astounding limitations. Matter of fact, more limitations are imposed on Vista and Windows 7′s version than XP’s icon toolbars. You could slap a toolbar on top, either side, or the bottom on top of the task bar, or within it. Now, you’re limited to the Quick Launch bar, and all of it’s limited glory.
Stardock came up with Object Dock quite some time ago and ever since we’ve been striving to find a freeware alternative. No one wants to pay that ridiculous amount for a simple drag and drop dock. So, here’s an alternative. (One of many to come).
Krento

Krento offers a clean GUI based off of Rocket Dock skins and opens up some possibilities for a GTD mindset. It’s easily skinned, and customized. Krento sits peacefully on your desktop, or hides silently in the background until summoned either via a system tray icon, or the confounding Pulsar widget (the red-eyed eyeball object). When it comes to adding your shortcuts to Krento, dragging and dropping gets it done.
