Portable Utilities
The software available on this site has been written so that it does not require the installation of runtime libraries. This means they can be run as a standalone applications which do not need to be installed first. This gives the great advantage and convenience of portability being able to run from CDs/DVDs, flash drives. Some of the other free software which is available on the internet is only free because it contains ad-ware or spy-ware for marketing purposes.
None of the software on this site contains spy-ware.

Thinking creatively

Too much experience can be a hindrance to creativity. Experience comes from solutions to old problems and situations which are never exactly the same as current situations. The way to creative ideas is to lose your inhibitions. Creativity is therefore responding to situations without critical thought. Alex Nolan is a lateral thinker who has an unusual inside out way of looking at things.
There is currently 68 ideas for pieces of software for this website in development.
