Making the most of your USB key

The USB key. Everyone has one .... or should ($7.95 for 2GBs at the local tech store). But are we using them well? Two sites I use that helps the lowly USB key come alive. First,

http://portableapps.com/

It's really amazing what you can carry around with you. All the essential apps and many niche ones too. The top of your list should be from this site though:

http://allwaysync.com/download.html

Unlike the apps listed on the first site, this one is for pay. However, it's worth it. Every penny. Your USB key should be your TEMPORARY doc store, not your ONLY doc store. Having Allway Sync "portable edition" on your USB key means that on any computer; at work, at home, at the cabin, you will have the latest version of whatever you want. Amazing sync software. I don't think I could sleep without it!
