This is a Chrome Experiment involving a rather unique experience in a popular boardwalk game that allows you to use your phone running Chrome to control the action on your desktop that is also running the Chrome browser. Pair up the two devices and 'flick' the phone to roll the ball into the holes to score points. Tons of fun! More info on how it works here. (Jesse Mendoza)

This is the essential Twitter application on BlackBerry 10. While the default Twitter app will get the job done, Blaq offers all the features you have come to love from a Twitter client. The native Cascades application is fast, smooth, and has a beautiful interface. Blaq offers a real time feed of your timeline and a nice drag to the right access to all your options. It also has large, high quality avatar images of all your contacts. (Andrew Allen)

I use Juice Defender to get the most out of my battery by being able to control what has connections to the data and when. I have seen significant battery savings in upwards of 4-5 hours extra per charge. There is a free version in the Google Play store, but it has limited controls versus the Ultimate version. It's worth trying the free one to see if Ultimate is something you would like to drop five bucks on. (Rick Nelson)
OS: Android
Price: Free
I need to stay in constant contact with a ton of people, and sometimes email just doesn't cut it. Hangouts (the new Google Talk app revealed at Google I/O) is very good in how it functions, and I love how well it translates from computer to phone and vice versa! It functions beautifully, and free? YEAH! (Patrick Campanale)
