with the thread being started about how many apps you have on your phone, it got me thinking...how many do you actually use? please list the apps you use the most daily. i will start out

Google news
Scorecenter
Facebook
Instagram
Craigslist
Pandora
 
Tapatalk, Engadget, FML, GeoDefense, Conquest, Phone, iMessage, Safari, Mail... and I think that's it.
 
Out of all the apps on the app store, there's only really about 100 worth using, and we'll all name the same ones.

If you have a specific need, just try out every reputable app for that need after reading about them online, and just keep the one you like and delete the rest.

Imo, Skype, Drudge Report, Yelp, Appadvice, Tech News Tube, Dolphin Browser, Tunein/Shoutcast, iBooks, Google Authenticator, Lastpass, FT, Goodplayer, Camera+, Dropbox, Google Voice.
