Portable Apps Directory
by Maruthu Pandian 07 Oct '06

Dear friends 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 Yes it is possible with Portable Apps. 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. This portability allows you to use programs on a computer that doesn't have them installed. For example, you may love using Mozilla Firefox at home, but your office's computer policies forbid installing it. You can get around the problem by running Firefox at work from a thumb drive. Portable programs also allow you to surf without leaving too many tracks. This is useful on a public computer. Portable Apps Directory is the directory of the applications available for portable use.
