Digsby for portable apps

Submitted by squirekyle on July 23, 2008 - 4:17pm

Digsby is a social networking that includes email and social networking all in one. I use it every day. It includes Gmail, yahoo mail, or almost any iMap or pop email service. For social networks it includes Myspace, Facebook and twitter and they are adding more all the time. It is completely open source and free. If it could be made to run on portable apps that would be great.

Other: Requires Octave as well which is also GPL. I currently have it running on my flash drive and I do not think it accesses the registry but I am not sure of this.

I am am looking for a portable C\C++ compiler. I know there was a simaler post but it was about 3 years ago so I thought I'd start a new post. I enjoy C/c++ programing and I am looking for a portable compiler/editor/debuger like a IDE that I can use. I suggest addeing one to the PortableApps and to the Suite.

Road Mapping programme request

Submitted by pj80471 on July 21, 2008 - 8:03am

Hi,
I wondered if anyone here has found a road mapping type appilcation that could be run on a USB stick or HDD.
I'd like to find something akin to the Autoroute or TomTom Navigator applications, obviously we cannot use those particular apps as they are not open source, but that is the type of app.

I have a feeling that the app may be easy but there will be a licensing problem with the actual maps, but I can always hope someone out there may have found something that is portable or at least carry-aroundable.
