Request Apps

I'm using Google calendar to take my calendar with me.

Is it possible to install Google sync to and run from a USB stick without changing anything on the host computer? I know that probably the answer is that it is not open source but could anyone research what's been altered on the host PC?
My employer doesn't allow installing software so I use portable applications.

Thnx in advance
and keep up the good work!

When clicking on a message the software shows the message, downloading the message if required. This is understandable, and I am sure a lot of people prefer this way.

Limewire has developed its own portable version but it is not in paf format.

JDownloader is open source, platform independent and written completely in Java. It simplifies downloading files from One-Click-Hosters like Rapidshare.com or Megaupload.com - not only for users with a premium account but also for users who don't pay. It offers downloading in multiple paralell streams, captcha recognition, automatical file extraction and much more. Of course, JDownloader is absolutely free of charge. Additionally, many “link encryption” sites are supported - so you just paste the “encrypted” links and JD does the rest. JDownloader can import CCF, RSDF and the new DLC files.

I know that you can put Window on your flash drive but how do you do it? Does anyone have a zip file I could use. I have seen this discussed before but the search didn't show me anything.

This is a very usefull app when you're on school: http://teach2000.memtrain.com/

I'm here but I'm already loving it. I do a lot of graphics and I saw the gimp on the list which was awesome and I'm totally grabbing that. But i was wondering why isn't Blender on the list. It's a fully functional 3D app that's open source and totally portable. My Blender folder is 57mb but i have lots of extras, the base folder off the Blender website is 33mb. There's no reason not to have it on here.

This would be a great addition to the Portable Operating Systems category: Ubuntu Linux running side by side with Windows. The Ubuntu windows appear side by side with the Windows windows. This is because the 2 Operating systems are running in the same time.
I have tested it and it runs great.
