If you're like me, you're just now finding out how useful a USB pen drive can be. I'm slow, I know...but I found a site today that just blew me away.
It says: These FREE programs do not require any installation and can be run
directly from a USB drive. Keep some useful apps handy while on-the-go!
There are portable versions of Firefox and Office out there as well. Here is a handy site that will take you to the limits of putting programs on your USB pen drives so that you can be as efficient as possible.
Some of the programs listed are:
- TreePad Lite - personal database and more
- Foxit PDF Reader - alternative to Adobe
- Quick 'n' Easy FTP Server Lite - as it says, and FTP server
- FollowMeIP Lite - shows your IP address even if you're behind a firewall
There are MANY more listed here and elsewhere so take a peek and use your USB pen drive to it's fullest extent!
Even better are:

enjoy! 🙂
