As I wrote on 2015-09-26, the original software isn't portable. I don't know why it hasn't yet been blacklisted from this website... Anyway, I tried the PortableApps version, but initially it didn't work: I had to rename first uTorrent_Downloaded.exe to uTorrent.exe in the [\uTorrentPortable\App\uTorrent] folder.

CintaNotes v3.2 Updated

Checker on 27 Jul 2016
  • 8MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 27 Jul 2016
  • Suggested by AlexJenter

CintaNotes is a tag-based, text-only personal notes manager for collecting bits and pieces of information such as thoughts and ideas, article excerpts, quotes, research, etc. A global hot key (by default Ctrl-F12) clips pieces of text from other applications such as web browsers or any local program. The window title becomes title/subject of the note and the highlighted text selected becomes the body.

The program is useful to quickly take down and tag any piece of useful text that you come across and quickly organize by date, keywords, title, link and note size. A search tool searches the entire database with search keyword highlighting.

Note: Some features limited to a "pro" version include simplenote sync, tabbed sections, pasting notes into other apps, hierarchical tags, and multiple notebooks.

I would second ResophNotes, an excellent, fast and simple note taking app that nicely syncs with Dropbox and various mobile note apps. Depends what you need. Works nicely for me and I prefer it over Evernote, which has many features I would never need.

There's again portable version of distribution file. You can change link from *.exe to *.zip file, and change description of installing.
