Great app for Canadian weather! Gives you more information than Celsius and no ads like The Weather Network's WeatherEye. Definitely worth the low $0.99 cost.

Extremely simple OSX app that saves you from typing in SSH commands manually via the command line or via shell scripts. Not a lot of options yet but you can still add any of the standard command line options yourself.

Simply beautiful email app. Extremely simple interface that just makes sense.

I LOVE The Pogues! I bought Hell's Ditch years ago and fell in love with the album even though it wasn't anything like what I normally listen too. This album has only made me love them more. If I was forced to label their genre I'd call them an Irish, folk, punk, rock band maybe?

Beautiful music mixed with in your face irreverent lyrics. Sometimes you'll feel like you're on the shores of Newfoundland, other times you'll feel like you're in a rowdy dive bar.

Cool little app that adds vinyl-like crackles and pops to your music. Really enjoy this app especially while listening to older music that was originally released on vinyl. I especially like this while listening to my folk collection, for some reason those songs just sound better with the extra noise that is nowadays removed by modern digital processes.

Classic folk album from a great artist! Worth it for the title track alone which is basically an 18 minute, hilarious story set to music.

If you like folk music and have never heard this… really? Do you really like folk music, or are you just saying that?

If you're not normally a fan of folk but are in the mood for something different this is an album worthy of your consideration.

Great underrated and under-loved TV series. I've watched this repeatedly and every time I get to the end, I'm always sad it's over. Then I watch it again and enjoy it just as much. What a stellar cast this was!

Easily my favorite Disney movie. Darker and spookier than most Disney flicks. Good fantasy story.

Solid IM client that lets you connect to multiple IM networks concurrently. Nice, simple layout. Good competitor to Adium.

Fantastic, feel good rock album. Heard about Brother Love from the Keith and the Girl podcast. I can't believe I waited this long to purchase the album because it's EXCELLENT!

Very similar to Instagram. Take photos, apply filters, post to numerous blogs and social networking sites. Also has a nice social aspect like Instagram. Only thing I miss (but not at all important) is the Polaroid look that Instagram gives pics.

The major benefit that picplz has over Instagram is that it's available for Android opening up that many more users to the app and the social aspect of it.

Nice looking, ad supported twitter client. Offers word and phrase highlighting which is a nice feature. Not a lot of bells and whistles but does everything well. Might not become my main twitter client but well done and compelling.

Prevents your computer from going to sleep while you give presentations etc. Works exactly as advertised.

I'm not important enough to be giving presentations to anyone but sometimes I like to pretend I am with my cat. She makes a good audience. I'm important to her probably, right?

Actually purchased: 100 Supreme Classical Masterpieces: Rise of the Masters

Great collection of classical music from a bunch of the great composers. 100 tracks for $8, you can't go wrong!

Great "Best of" type collection of Beatles songs, most of which are after their bubble-gum pop music phase. Worth every penny. In all honesty though, spend the gas/bus money and go out and buy it on CD for the same price and have a good copy of it forever.

Alright app. You get a 10 pack of recipes for free. After that you can buy more recipes packs in the store included in the app. If I could cook, I'd probably use this app a lot and purchase more recipes. Provides you with a nice Summary of the recipe, a list of everything you'll need (ingredients, utensils, etc) and well laid-out steps. Also there's a few video tips included.

Love this app. I use it combined with the desktop version (also free) all the time. While Evernote is good at a lot of things, I use it mainly for todo lists. For everything from my shopping lists to chores around the house to my task list at work.

Nice, simple little app that lets me access my browser bookmarks wherever I go.

Very happy with this app. Up-to-date scores sorted by date, Standings organized by Division, Conference and League, latest news, and Team information broken down into Roaster, Stats and Schedule.

Simple app that lets you track your packages as well as use your location to find the nearest Post Office. This app lacks the postal code look-up from the website which to me is the most useful feature of the website.
