Sometimes I don’t want to haul around my laptop but like to my carry information. So, I went out and bought an inexpensive 2 GB USB thumbdrive during a sale at CompUSA. After scouring the internet for portable applications to put on my thumbdrive, I found this awesome list over at http://portable-apps.subiectiv.com/.

Among the list are portable internet browsers, image and audio editors, instant messaging clients, office, ftp clients, even a complete web authoring application!

I can download and install these applications on my thumbdrive and now I have a super portable version of my digital life. I can backup my bookmarks, documents, some mp3s. Now I can walk into work, plug in my thumbdrive to the Mac and have my computer from home.

What did you learn in this post?
Or did it leave you with further questions?
