->> I will add:
Google Goggles- (barcode scanner, visual scanner, etc. You can scan the cover of a book or a fairly well known picture or part of a picture, ie., Riis or Guzy, etc., and Goggles, can sometime ID it and do a search)
Dropbox- Allows you to share files between computers, smart phones, etc. by syncing a folder between devices and the cloud. I like to keep invoice in it, so I can resend them from my phone if I'm not at the office. |
