John C. Welch Hearts Automator

[John C. Welch](http://www.bynkii.com/) over at [InformationWeek](http://www.informationweek.com/) has written up a 2-part article, [*Top 22 Mac OS X Products*](http://www.informationweek.com/news/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=197700391). Coming in at #15 is Applescript, to which Welch says:

>"Long considered a hidden jewel in Apple's crown, AppleScript is enjoying yet another renaissance thanks to Automator, a rather nice GUI drag and drop UI for automation languages. While you can create Automator actions in many languages, AppleScript is the one that gives you the most access to not just Mac OS X, but also the applications on the Mac."
