    Every application is portable

    Sunday, June 1st, 2008

    PortableApps.com is a community site devoted to the development, promotion and use of portable applications. The site was created by John T. Haller, the developer behind numerous portable applications (like Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition and OpenOffice.org Portable) as a way to centralize the knowledge and development efforts of multiple portable application efforts.

    A portable app is a computer program that you can carry around with you on a portable device and use on any Windows computer. When your USB flash drive, portable hard drive, iPod or other portable device is plugged in, you have access to your software and personal data just as you would on your own PC. And when you unplug the device, none of your personal data is left behind.

    Consider the Possibilities…

    • Carry your web browser with all your favorite bookmarks
    • Carry your calendar with all your appointments
    • Carry your email client with all your contacts and settings
    • Carry your instant messenger and your buddy list
    • Carry your whole office suite along with your documents and presentations
    • Carry your antivirus program and other computer utilities
    • Carry all your important passwords and account information securely

    Consider the Convenience…

    • Have your favorite websites handy to recommend to a friend or colleague
    • Have your presentation AND the required software ready to go for that big meeting
    • Have your password with you if you want to bank online while traveling
    • Have utilities handy when visiting family or friends that are having PC problems

    So why not download them now from Portableapps.com

    Thanks

    To use Google’s built-in calculator function, simply enter the calculation you’d like done into the search box and hit the Enter key or click on the Google Search button.

    These sample queries demonstrate the utility and power of this new feature:
