Portable Apps + Mini CD-R



So you need to check your email, but the computer at the office/library is locked down, so you can't install your thumb drive loaded with Portable Thunderbird and Portable Firefox. What to do? If all else fails. It is possible to burn a "Portable Power" cdrom, with all your portable apps set up and ready to go. But who wants to toss around a full size CD-R, why not go all out and make a "Portable Power" pocket disk. Pocket disks are about half the size of a regular CD-R, and have a storage capacity of about 210 MB. This makes them the perfect size for installing plenty of portable apps, giving you back the power to take your life on the road [Lifehacker: Carry your life on a thumb drive]
