New Pokki Adds A Rich Start Menu To Windows 8

Introduction

In this article we explain a new Pokki that adds a rich start menu to Windows 8 with controls for Start Screen & hot corners. In Windows 8 pokki is a new addition. Pokki is a Windows application with which we use a multitude of web services such as Gmail, Twitter, Facebook etc. It also offers an Apps Store that contains a plethora of absolutely free apps. The interface of Pokki Start Menu looks extremely slick. It automatically places the Start Orb to the bottom-left of the screen. The app appears in the left side; you can access Documents, Music, Pictures and Computers. In addition, you may execute Favorites, All Programs and Control Panel items. The search box displays at the top of window.

If you are already using Facebook Lite for Pokki, it will show you the recent notifications in the right panel. Lastly, you may also head to the Start Screen by clicking the miniscule button present next to the Power Options menu.

The All Programs Menu houses the shortcuts of the installed applications. It allows you to instantly add a shortcut to the Favorites by marking the Star next to each item. The application however, neither holds Window Store apps nor displays them in search results.
