My Top 10 Android Apps & Widget

I'm a new user for Android system in a couple of week and I found it is amazing with their games and applications. Today's article will be my top 10 android apps & widget.


1. Calendr
Calendr is a minimalistic agenda widget for your home screen. Why minimalistic? Because it only show the upcoming event within a week and only display the important note.Why I like calendr? In personally, I like the design, it is simple and cool!! A very creative tool. And it is Free.















2. Clockr
Clockr has a same idea with Calendr- simple, cool, minimalistic. It is a text-based clock widget for your home screen.















3. Waze

Waze is the best GPS social media app I found so far. It is combined with a little cute characteristic icon and a google map. It's function is not only bring you to the destination, it will estimate the fastest way and show you the estimated arrival time. Besides that, it will show you the actual traffic, speed traps, hazards and etc which report by the user.

For example, you can report the traffic where the area your are in with just a few clicks, waze will track the average speed and the location of your vehicle, so we will know the traffic on your area.

Take a tour for this cool app from the developer http://www.waze.com/guided_tour/.

Overall, this is a really cool app with lot of useful feature. Try this out!! A 5 stars app.


4. Imo


With IMO, you can chat with your friends in one app by your existing IM accounts. You can sign in with existing accounts on Facebook Chat, Google Talk, Skype, MSN, ICQ/AIM, Yahoo, Jabber, and Myspace. You can also view all your buddies in a single page. IMO save time and space on your phone. Thumb up!!



5. Foursquare
Foursquare is a location based mobile platform. You can share your location with friends by check-in via your smartphone or SMS. Foursquare get you the information not only your current visit but also the nearby area.
6. Google Goggles

Google Goggles is a visual search app. You can search text, landmark, book, logo, artwork, places, wine, etc.. by just take a photo, the application will scan the photo and return by the relevant information. Great job Google!! 











7. Cam Scanner

Working at home wthout a scanner? Cam Scanner done this for you. It turn your smartphone to a document scanner. You can crop and zoom the scanned image to ensure that is what you need and save it as at PDF file. You will not just keep your scanned image in your phone right? share, upload or email to your computer which you have to continue your work.












8. Shazam
Shazam is the fastest and easiest way to discover more about the music. Hold your phone up to the song and recognize the track, check out for the video, get a lyrics, share out to your friends and even more.















9. Seesmic

Seesmic is a very cool app for you to manage your Facebook, Twitter, Google Buzz and Salesforce Chatter accounts in a same app, same time. Which attract me the most is the widget, you never miss a  single update from your friends.













10. Bump
By just 'Bumping' two phones together, they can share apps, contacts and photos to each other! once you bump with a certain user, you can keep sending photos, chat messages, contacts, and apps anytime, anywhere.














Is it a great list? this is what I discovered as a cool apps so far, for sure there are lot of other great apps in the market. Give me some comment for this list or any suggestion?
