ObjectDock

ObjectDock is a simple software program that acts as a task manager and as a program launcher.
It allows you to organize your shortcuts and tasks on a customizable dock located on your desktop.
Users can customize what every item on the menu will look like and set different animations that will take effect whenever your mouse cursor will hover over an item.
ObjectDock is extremely easy to configure.
