    Your top 5 favorite apps

    Great comments here, everyone. I agree with having two separate threads as not all mobile apps are available for desktops. It's part of my critera when it comes to apps, the ability to use on both desktop and mobile but it's not a perfect world. For example, Waze is great for me when it comes...
