Being an IT administrator, I have always wanting to make life simpler for myself; i.e. to carry my programs (or program files) and use them whenever I  go.

A laptop is a good mobility tool but sometimes you can’t possibly use it at work or carry it everywhere ( do note my Lenovo is like 3kg and the battery life last for about an hour and a half on full charge).

Though this is a laptop blog, I would also like to share with you technologies that can be made much more simpler for us users.

I’ve recently made my imation Flash Go! USB drive a portable application.

To make my explanation sounds simpler, I can now run my office suite, browser, chat program, media player,  password manager tool, anti-virus, pdf reader, e-mail client and much more … all from my USB thumbdrive.

That’s a lot of stuffs there and my thumdrive is only 4 Gb, so how is this possible?

All we know that Skype is one of the most popular (or should I say “The Popular”) VOIP software currently used by people around the world these days.

Because it is so popular, sometimes we tend to receive poor signals in term of voice chat or video chat ( I had it sometimes on my laptop when I’m talking with my friends on some blogging issues).

Anyway there’s an up and coming software that might be common to some laptops out there, and I’m not talking Skype.

Introducing CQPhone, an easy to use PC-to-PC phone, that allows voice chat, as well as video chat and text chat. In addition, you can easily exchange pictures and web links by simply dragging them onto the interface.

One thing I like about this software is that there is no registration involved, you simply install the software and it automatically assigns you a CQ phone number (how simple can that be).

It works with most firewalls out there and here’s a catcher …. you can even hook your camcoder to the software (it will detect and you’re off video chatting - how cool can that be).

It works on any Microsoft Windows operating system and guess what “It’s FREE” !

Download the software here today.
