USB Stick Portable Apps

Take your most important apps around on a USB stick. Most of these are available from http://portableapps.com. Here are the ones I use.

  • OpenOffice – Office Suite and line-art design tools
  • FireZilla – FTP
  • Nvu – Web page editor
  • Firefox – Web browser
  • LockNote – Encrypt a text file (to store passwords, etc.)
  • PSPad – Text Editor
  • PStart – App Launcher
  • Gimp – Image editor
  • MySQL-Front — MySQL database tool. I use the old, open-source version; there is a newer commercial version here. A good server-side alternative is phpMyAdmin.

Additional portable apps, including games, can be found here.
