Tiny USB Office: Floppy office portable apps suite outgrows its disk

Tiny USB Office
Like the idea of carrying a portable office suite on your USB flash drive, but think that OpenOffice.org and even smaller applications like AbiWord take up too much space? Tiny USB Office provides a ton of useful applications, hold the bloat.

Tiny USB Office started its life as "Floppy Office," an application suite with a footprint so small that it could fit on a 1.44MB floppy disk. You know, if you happen to have one lying around. But the developers have packed so many features into the latest release that there was no way to keep the suite that small. No, Tiny USB Office now takes up a whopping 2.4MB.

Here are a few of the applications included int he suite:
  • CSVed - Database application
  • NPopUK - Email Cleint
  • FTP Wanderer - FTP client
  • Spread32 - Spreadsheet application
  • Kpad - Word processor
  • 100 Zipper - File compression utility
  • PDF Producer - PDF creator
  • DScrypt - Data Encryption
And the list goes on. As you'd probably expect, these applications are missing some of the bells and whistles you'll find from Microsoft Office or OpenOffice.org. But the price is right. Tiny USB Office is free, and we're betting you've got at least 2.5MB to spare on your flash drive.

Forumwarz - a potentially offensive time waster

I pwn UAfter spending the better part of an hour on Forumwarz I still can't decide if it's just sick or if it's kind of fun. It's a bit like a car wreck on the highway. I know I shouldn't be looking but I can't quite turn away.

It's sick, it's twisted, it's the internet on it's worst level and darn it, it's kind of fun. At least for a little while.

Forumwarz is a parody role-playing game that takes place on the internet - or at least the Forumwarz version of it. Your goal is to complete missions that are given to you through a mock up of GoogleTalk called Sentrillion.

Your first "friend" is ShallowEsophagus who begins giving you missions to pwn various forums by being a troll. Depending on the character type you are assigned at start up, you have tools like drooling on the keyboard or bashing your head on the keyboard that you can use to destroy forum threads and eventually, pwn a forum.

Future missions involve buying illegal software from the Russians, pwning more difficult forums and other internet oddness.

Completing missions gives you cash, called Flezz in game, and items that you can pawn or use in other missions. The game is NOT for those easily offended. It's crass, coarse and there are frequent f-bombs in the fake chat sessions.

This is also a game for a more mature audience as it requires you to shop at the Drugs R Fun store to get various concoctions to improve your playing, engage in certain cyber activities to get more Flezz and just generally use a more adult perspective.

If you can get past that, here are the more enjoyable and time-wasting aspects.
