Hulu+ and Netflix are great if you use those services. OneNote and Remote Desktop are indispensable in productivity (Remote Desktop is really good if you have a computer at home to use for hosting desktop applications).

Notepad Classic if you want to stay out of desktop mode and just want something to write quick notes.

Is Hulu + as bad as it use to be with ads? I canceled because of ads and kept my netflix

Filebrick - best file explorer ive tried - I paid for it its so good. It syncs all your cloud files, Google drive, skydrive, dropbox, box, even facebook images/videos, picassa, twitter, etc.

Great suggestions. This should be a sticky. I'd add a few

Armed! - crisp tower defense game (available on WP8 too). Play against computer or remotely against others.
DragonBox+ - super entertaining game for kids and adults that secretly teaches them algebra (seriously the best learning game I've ever seen)
Fitbit - to view your fitbit steps and sleep activity
Skype - great, updated version of the Skype client (the Win8/RT version is the best)
CascadeSkier - Ski resort conditions for those in the Pacific Northwest United States
Pulse - newsreader I use along with Discourse and News Bento
mobile.HD - view MKV files natively, either locally or streaming from a local network. Works with Music too!
Music Info - Best UI around and the absolute best music player I've seen for Win8/RT
gMaps Pro - Mapping and directions - including Google Latitude to view locations of friends sharing via Latitude

[textomatic]

I currently use
Bing Daily News app - Great customization and great presentation
Pulse.me app - Great news aggregator.
The Gunstringer - It's like Temple Run.
IE 10 - I have a bunch of websites pinned with IE. Works great.

Right!!, the cloud folder access is 2nd to none on win8 modern ui

Gmusic - If your like me and have an Android phone, and previously uploaded a ton of music to Google Music, then this app is a must. Gives you access to all of your google music that you uploaded (I have like 30+gb of music, and was debating to transfer it to a different service, but whoever this dev is - THANKS.

News bento - reminds me of flipboard
wordament - my girl and I play this all the time .. it is so addicting
cocktail flow - when I want to experiment with my toxicating my body..
Wikipedia - self explanatory.
custom tiles - take pictures and make them tiles.. saw a guy on YT with pics of his children rotating... dope
fresh paint - once I saw the little girl in commercial look like Picasso I had to get my Michelangelo on...

I agree. Make it a sticky! There are some app I see here that I didn't even know were available.

Cheezburger -for all the meme-ers out there this program is an aggregate of the daily best hits. Supports left and right swipe, pretty good for such a random app.

[johnbash612]

One that should be mentioned is adobes pdf reader. Its just been the most consistent reader for me, especially with my gimassive textbook files. I also actually like my reader that comes with surface itself, though I know quite a few people bark at it.

Remote Desktop
Pulse
One Note
youtube RT
Riptide GP
Multimedia 8
Pinspiration -pinterest app
ESPN
