Very Useful Applications – Portable Apps

Now you can carry your favorite computer programs along with all of your bookmarks, settings, email and more with you.

If you regularly work both from your desktop PC and laptop like I do, you know what a chore it is keeping your files synced between your systems. Plus you need to have a copy of each of your applications installed on both systems. This is where PortableApps.com Suite and PortableApps.com Platform comes in handy. Allowing you to take your programs, email, bookmarks and settings with you and use them on any windows computer.

PortableApps runs from your usb drive, ipod, or portable hard drive. Allowing you to take your apps with you and always have them when you need them. Best of all PortableApps is FREE, has no spyware or advertisements. PortableApps is also open source.

After trying out PortableApps I am sure I wont go anywhere with out my usb drive and PortableApps again. My usb drive isn’t just for saving my data anymore, now it has all my applications loaded also.

    Webmaster’s Guide to cPanel

    “Webmaster’s Guide to cPanel”

    There is much more to developing a Web presence than choosing a domain name, applying a template, writing some content, and adding navigation menus. There are a multitude of tasks related to developing, managing, and maintaining Web sites that are required. Often these technologies must be gleaned haphazardly from vast resources or learned by trial and error. On the other hand, most Web services hosting providers – those fine folks who make our sites available to the world – include control panels that allow us to easily manage and maintain our sites. The most popular control panel – cPanel® – includes an extensive array of features that when fully understood can save many hours of frustration.

    John Pfost has released his new book “Webmaster’s Guide to cPanel”. This is a must read for any aspiring webmaster. Cpanel being the most used control panel available. If you host a website or are a web site developer this book will be invaluable to you.
