I've mentioned this to the developer before, but thought I would put it up here to see if others had any interest in these ideas:

It would be cool to have a "recent apps" and a "most-used apps" group which auto-updated themselves. OS X already has this built-in, you can access recent app/items in the Apple menu, and there are Dock settings to get those folders into the right-hand side of the Dock as well (http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20071101055329470)

One feature not anywhere in OS X (or Overflow) is a "most-used apps" group/folder. I have no idea of this is feasible (or difficult), but it would be great to have a group in Overflow that auto-updated based on usage of an app.

Not sure if it would be calculated by number of times opened, or by how long it's been open (or a mix of both?).

    Oooo, I like these - all the traditional/mac "recents" and the most used.

    As well I'm for this feature. Not crucial but It would be a fine addition.

    Yes, keeps Overflow elegant but not bloating like DragThing became.
