Evernote- Evernote is an amazing application that syncs across multiple devices and computers to keep all of your notes and lists in one place. You can easily organize your notes into notebooks, and organize your notebooks into stacks. You can use Evernote for many different things, from organizing online recipes, having your favorite web links accessible anywhere, or even being able to quickly save your ideas and sync them to everything. Evernote service and mobile apps are both free. This app is supported on Windows, Mac OSX, IPhone, IPod Touch, Android phones, Blackberry phones, and Windows Mobile phones.

DropBox- DropBox is an application that you can install on multiple computers and devices to share files. This is great for taking notes during class or snapping a quick picture, and then automatically having access to these files on your mobile device—or vice versa. The service is free for up to 2GB of files, and the app is free too! DropBox is supported for the IPhone, IPad, Android phones, and Blackberry phones. Get it here for your computer too.
