Features
ObjectDock allows the user to place shortcuts to any program in a "dock." This provides Windows users functionality similar to that of Mac OS X. The program comes in two versions, free, and a paid version offering more features. The free version is no longer available from the official site, but is still available from the CNET CDN that the homepage used to redirect to.
ObjectDock can be used as a program launcher, or as a complete taskbar replacement. Its functionality can be enhanced with plugins to provide features such as weather forecasts or news.
Versions
Version 2.0 added preliminary Vista support, resource-searching, improved drag-and-drop, and new zoom effects. The current version is 2.2 which added tabbed docks.
