Lazy Web: What are your favorite Android apps?

I am now the proud owner of a T-Mobile G1 running the Android operating system. I like it so far, though I wish the on-screen keyboard pas a bit more responsive. I have already installed a few applications, including Pacman, and a bar code / QR code scanner, but I’d like to take full advantage of this pocket-sized computer that sometimes pretends it’s a phone.

So I ask you: What are your favorite Android applications?

Please share:

  • The name of the application
  • What it does
  • Whether it’s free, paid, and/or open source

I’m looking for a great to-do list / task manager (GTD not necessary) in particular.

  1. I'd recommended Astrid Task To Do. ActionComplete if you want GTD.

    My favs currently:
    K9 Mail
    TwitterRide
    Texas Hold'em Poker
    Astro or Linda File Manager
    The Weather Channel
    Shazam
    Bar Code Scanner
    Spades

    Hi,

    I second Astrid, although when I sync'd it with remember the milk, it erased a bunch of stuff.

    I also use TwitterRide (It's a little slow for me, but it does okay )
    3 Banana – Note taking
    Any Cut – for making shortcuts out of anything
    Where – Location service
    Sky Map – star map Got it for Kicks

    Not much of a game person for the phone, that's what my PS3 is for…
