My G1!!! (Updated January 3, 2010)

So, as you probably have guessed, I got myself G1.

It has surpassed my dreams and I could probably go on about it's awesomeness for the rest of this post, but enough drooling -- down to business.

My favorite apps (alphabetical order):


Babbler ($1.49): Facebook app that beats the "real" Facebook app.

Babbler Lite: Free version of Babbler.

Barcode Scanner: Scans regular and 2D barcodes, like the QR codes you see to the left.

Bloo ($0.99): Facebook. Better then Babbler after the last Babbler update (they made it green and very slow).

Bloo 1.4 Beta: A free version of Bloo. I haven't tried it yet, but I'm going to.

Bubble: A level (just really cool).
DailyStrip: Comic strip viewer.

FlashLight: It took me a while to find a good flashlight app.

Google Goggles: Just awesome.
Google Maps: Because it has Latitude.

Google Sky Map: I love the stars, this gives me a real-time view of the stars. I can hold it up to the sky in front of me to see where things are.

Key Ring: Stores all of my key-chain cards (Dillons, Kroger, Dick's Sporting Goods, etc.) so the store just has to scan my phone. Haven't used it yet, but I'm anxious.

Listen: A Google podcast manager with pause/resume capabilities.

Locale: Really cool app. I don't use it, but it makes the list.

Movies: A fantastic app that lets you look up movies, see information, watch trailers, find showtimes (for theaters around your location) and even manage your Netflix queue.

Note Everything: A nice notepad which includes the ability to draw pictures.

Shazam: I've been a fan for a long time, now I have it!

ShopSavvy: Another barcode reader, but with many more features dealing with finding the best price(s) both online and locally as well as reviews.

Silent Time: I originally used Locale but it turned out to be overkill since I just wanted my phone to automatically turn off my ringer when I went to sleep and turned it back on when I woke up.

SnapPhoto: A replacement for the default camera app that includes stability and some effects.

SnapPhoto Pro ($0.99): Paid version. This is my next purchase.

TaskPanel: A great task manager with auto-kill and ignore lists.

Toggle Settings: This is a nice app. It has replaced Silent Time and given me a bit more control.

Weatherbug: I have always hated WeatherBug with a passion because the version for regular computers is full of spyware and junk software that slows your computer down. This version is the complete opposite; it is a fantastic app.

WeatherBug Elite ($1.99): Paid version with no ads and animated RADAR. I bought this.


Anybody else have any good ones?
