Favorite Android Apps

Had more Droid for a couple months now and LOVE it. Thought I'd list off my favorite apps/features. Everything below is free. Sounds like us Droid users favor that pricing model anyway....
  1. Car home - without a doubt the GPS, navigation features alone make the Droid an awesome device. "Navigate to pizza" always provides me a list of local options immediately - me likey.

  2. Seesmic - I enjoy Twitter and this is the best client I have found on Android.

  3. Advanced Task Killer - Knocks off programs running in the background to save battery life. Sarah found this one for me. Thanks Sarah, for now I like you more than your sister.

  4. Voice Search - Even with my lousy enunciation, this works great. I find myself talking to my iTouch to search now. That doesn't work as well.

  5. Foursquare - As Mayor of La-z-boy, I declare this am awesome app. You can get Gowalla too, just not from the Market currently. Gowalla is purtier than Foursquare, but not working super on Android yet.

  6. FxCamera - cool effects for your camera.

  7. Meebo - since the Facebook app is lame and does not offer chat, kinda need this. Includes access to GTalk, MSN, AOL, etc...

  8. DroidLight - LED flashlight. I actually use this more than you think.

  9. ShopSavvy - GREAT UPC scan and price check (stores, online)

  10. AP Mobile - handy news app.

  11. Pandora - streaming music.

  12. Photoshop on mobile - just starting to learn how great this app is to edit/crop mobile photos.

  13. Oh, there is an icon that lets me use the Droid as a PHONE too. Pretty cool
More to come....
