Wikipedia

One of the biggest reasons to have an IPhone is the ability to look up anything at any moment. The Wikipedia app is perfect for proving someone you are always right.

Evernote

Evernote is a great solution when managing documents. It allows you to work on a project on the IPhone and pick it up on a website on any computer.

Jango

Jango is an app used to stream music. It is pefect for making custom stations and side stepping music you simply don't want to listen to. It is comparable to Pandora.

Facebook/Twitter

I will combine these two as they are almost one in the same. Both apps allow you to keep up with family and friends while making sure they know what you are up to in your life.

Huffington Post

This is my favorite news app. The Huffington Post does an excellent job presenting both hard news stories and comic relief. The number of sections is always growing too with many interesting topics.

Flashlight

People would be amazed if I could count how many times I have used this app. Flashlights are always getting lost right when you need them so luckily this app steps in when you are left in the dark.

Ted

Need to be inspired or listen to any number of topics be spoke upon? TED is the perfect app to listen to experts discuss a vast variety of topics. It is very relaxing.

Sporcle

Far and away my favorite game on the IPhone. This is a fun trivia app which can keep you guessing for hours. The paid version is worth the few dollars to gain more quizzes.

Opera

Opera is a great web browser for the IPhone. It is a lot faster than Safari and very easy to move through. Check it out.

Mashable

Mashable is perfect for those who love to stay in the know when it comes to technology news. The app is full of news concerning social media, new products and fresh ideas.

Adobe Photoshop Express

This is a great app when adjusting photos before publishing on the web. It gives users the ability to crop photos and resize the images.

IMDb

There are always moments when watching a movie or television show when you can't place an actor or actress. IMDb has that and lots more covered. There are no more times going to bed trying to remember where you seen an actor before because this app makes it easy to discover.

ESPN Radio

Sports junkies will love this app. It allows listeners to gain access to live shows on ESPN Radio no matter where in the world you are. 

msnbc

This is another great news app for the IPhone. The stories are updated on a regular basis and there is a nice list of categories. Users can also read msnbc blogs and watch videos.

Awesome Note

This is my newest app to grow to enjoy. It is the best organizer I have found on the IPhone. It comes with a calendar and also is great when it comes to making these lists and keeping a running task manager.
