PORTABLE APPS - YOUR DIGITAL LIFE, ANYWHERE


I have generally seen people suffering lack of software resources while they are not home and they have to use public computers to serve the purpose and they find it so difficult to adapt that they finally land up making blunders out of their job. So I decided to find a solution to the problem and I landed up with a free, convenient and a portable solution - Portable Apps.

WHAT IS A PORTABLE APP?

A portable app is essentially a normal application which has been made lighter in size and open to install on any device or platform, generally pendrives and other portable devices. It is convenient to carry anywhere and has a good user-friendly interface. It gives an environment analogus to the regular application softwares that might be installed on your PC or the PCs next door.

WHERE AND HOW SHALL I INSTALL IT?

It installation is as simple as that of any other normal application program. Just bootstrap the Portable Apps setup form your hard drive and select the device in which you wish to install it. All you need is enough of storage capacity to install it and you are done. The time you feel that it has survived enough on your device and now its time to throw it off, all you need is to delete the folder containing the installed files and its done. As simple as that!

WHAT FEATURES DO I ACCESS?

What do you get? I say, what not do you get? It has got a complete host of the most wanted portable edition open source softwares that you might need anytime on the go. It has got web browser- Mozilla Firefox, mail client- Mozilla ThunderBird, office client- Open Office Suite and so on. There's also portable entertainment for you guys out there who feel how boring it is without games and music being around. You've got Sudoku and CoolPlayer+ Portable edition for the time being to at to survive the boredom you suffer even without them.

WHAT HAVE THEY MISSED?

I really felt that the App should have had a compressed file reader and extractor such as 7Zip. People generally keep their files zipped and even sometimes compressed to keep them safe in archives. And to decompress those files you need the extractors.

FROM WHERE DO I DOWNLOAD IT?
