Portable Apps
is a great utility that sits on your usb thumb drive, and provides access to a number of applications which you can use on a host computer by simply plugging in your drive, it then pops up a menu in your taskbar
Winsplit Revolution
is also a great utility which allows you to move windows around your screen, perfect for large screens and multi-screen setups. For instance Ctrl-Alt-Numpad 7 will send the currently selected window in the top left corner of your screen, similarly Ctrl-Alt-Numpad 6 will send it to the entire right half of the screen. It makes sense if you look at you numpad as a map of your screen
Combine the two!
As of 04 June 2008 Winsplit Revolution now comes in a portable install mode - meaning that all files are stored on your usb drive, however they mention no integration with Portable Apps. By selecting the portable mode in the Winsplit installer and carefully choosing the path of install to be "X:\Portable Apps\Winsplit" where is the drive letter of your usb drive with Portable Apps already installed then voila - we now have Winsplit in the Portable Apps menu on your taskbar
