Very interesting, I did not expect I could find an information about USB drive used to run a website or blog. At first I really thought putting up or running a website would be expensive because we need a bigger drive to store all the application needed. I am amaze with this I will try this stuff.
Thank you for sharing this.

That’s a cool idea, as long as the USB drives function well.

This cool approach can be made cooler. Create a folder on usb drive. Share that folder with full permissions. Map that folder as R (or some other available letter) drive. Unzip Xmapp zip file into this R drive. Run your web site from within this R drive. Later on suppose you want to run the web site from hard drive. Just copy the usb’s shared folder onto hard drive. Re-map R drive to the hard drive’s folder. By using this sharing and mapping, you can toggle between usb drive and hard drive or whatever.
