Got a suggestion for an app that should be portable? Post it here.

Asset tag app

I don't know of any apps in existence that will do what I want. In the case that I lose my drive and someone finds it, I would like a simple app that is prominently displayed on the menu (perhaps as part of the menu itself) that gives the owner's contact info (phone, email, address) so the drive can be returned. I would even be satisfied if I could place a shortcut on the apps menu to a text file on the drive containing my contact info. I currently have said text file in the root folder of my drive, hoping that anyone who plugged it in would see it (it's simply named "If found read this").

Open Source Virtualization app

virtualbox.org

Announced they are going open source (they do say GPL on the web site). It may be a little premature in the development cycle for a portable version, but this looks like an alternative to QEMU, moka5, VMWare, and other similar applications.

Lego digital designer, available at ldd.lego.com, allows you so design and order your own Lego models on the computer. This should be available as a portable app.

Hello, first I wanna say thanks for the great work of all people responsible for this site, and sorry for my poor english... I'm from Brazil Wink

My request is simple...
I just wanna somebody turn 7-zip (my favorite program for compression) into "U3 menu compative", cause I don't know how to do this right... I'll be happy if somebody makes this for me.

Thanks.
