6. Airbnb
Hotels are great when other
people are paying, or if you have pots of cash to waste, but otherwise
they're rarely situated where you want them. Airbnb is one of the stars
of the so-called shareconomy, an accommodation network built around
normal people offering up their unused rooms for a little bit of extra
cash.
The result? You'll be able to find somewhere to stay right in the heart of the city, up a mountain or even down a river, often for a very decent price. Just spend a minute browsing the amazing pads on offer and you'll be hooked.

7. Any.do To-do list & task list
We're all busy. Busy creating
Stuff To Do lists and sticking them in our bags, on the front door, in
our back pockets and tapping them into note apps on our phones. Any.do
is the best way to keep on top of all those loose ends, thanks to its
cloud syncing and sharing skills. You can have it running as a live
widget on your homescreen and also separate your tasks into different
folders.

8. Evernote
Evernote is a dumping ground
for everything. Got a quick idea for something amazing? Bung it in
Evernote! Got a receipt? Chuck it in Evernote! Fancy recording yourself
yelling “ARGH!” because you just forgot to save a receipt in Evernote
and have since misplaced it? Upload it to Evernote!
It’s clean, fairly simple, hugely flexible, *very* cross-platform, possibly a bit too green, and remembers stuff so that you don’t have to bother.

9. Slack
It wears the beard of
business, and talks about “all your team communication in one place,”
and that is *a* side of Slack. It’s a powerful real-time messaging
system, where you can talk all businessy about business things, and
almost never drift into a conversation about jetpacks.
But Slack also works nicely as a group communications tool for anyone: friends working on a project, or just wanting to talk using a system that’s compatible with multiple platforms and devices.

10. Cocktail Flow - Drink recipes
The best feature of this
cocktail recipe book is the way you can tell it what odds and ends
you've got lurking in the cupboard under the sink, and then ask it to
suggest palatable ways to mix them up. It also comes with a library of
popular cocktails, with additional packs that can be downloaded for a
small fee.
