General Discussion

Hi,

I am just wondering what people think the future of portable apps is. Just on some of the research I have done, it seems the industry is fully pursuing web apps as the platform of the future, but I think portable apps have many advantages (like with web apps, you can access them anywhere, but you can also do things like read and write to/from the local hard drive, which you cant do with web apps).

How come folders on the main forum index don't light up when there are new posts?

Related issue: Usually there's "x new" under the post count in the case of new posts to a forum, but a lot of times, for some inexplicable reason, it doesn't say "x new" even when there are new posts? So that combined with the forum folders not lighting up makes it difficult to determine when something has been posted...

basically made it look nicer and updated it for useability with PAM 1.1 instead of beta 2

Is there a database for homework & projects that I'm just not seeing?

I need something to store research data -URLs, text clips, pics (or pointers to the pics), etc.- for several different projects, e.g. 1)Essay: German Lit, 2)Mechanical Engineering, etc.

I need to be able to sub-categorize, for instance, Mechanical Engineering, 1)Drive Gear Box, 2)Mechanism for Automatically Opening Car Door, 3)Electric Motor Controller, 4)Electro-Mechanical Motor Controller, and so on.

Is there a Portable App that can do this?

Thanks!

my company just gave us new laptops and we cannot even plug in a mouse without them checking if for virus first. If I plug in my thumb drive with Portable apps can it be traced or leave some sort of signature that it's been on my laptop?

was "company computer"

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but is there anywhere on this site or forum that commercial PortableApps.com-compatible apps can be listed? I have noted the stern warnings about spamming, but it strikes me that folks might be interested in knowing about other apps they can use with PortableApps.com.

Hi,

I'd like to include a free Windows game I wrote but I'm not planning on open-sourcing it. Is that possible?

The game has no ads and it's not spyware or anything like that...

You can find more info at: www.poolrebel.com

Hi All,

I would like to know if these applications can be added to the iPhone? I think they are great and would be a great asset if they can.

Thanks.

it is now coming up on 10 minutes to install PortableApps. is this normal?

Well hello everyone... or rather goodbye everyone!

My situation is as follows: our family is going overseas for three months on mission work. We leave on the 17th of November (next Monday, early) for Sri Lanka, where we are due to stay for one month. Then India, in Hyderabad for 2 weeks, then Kolkata (formerly Calcutta :P) for a month and a half. We get back on the 17th of February 2009.
