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.
