Evernote
Think of Evernote as an across-the-board bookmark app. It lets you save, organize and relocate text, notes, audio recordings, images, websites and ideas. It comes with automatic geo-location information, in-image text search, and auto-synchronization between your desktop and the web.

Use Your Handwriting
Use Your Handwriting is an application that combines a to-do list with handwriting and drawing capabilities. The application is good for people who like to view their tasks as visual images rather than as long lists of text. Users input items into the to-do list by drawing pictures or writing words with their finger. Like a virtual Post-it note for people on the go.
Price: free
