Magic 8-Ball
Since the 1940s, millions of people have turned to the Magic 8-Ball for answers to life's most pressing questions.

Ever heard a song and couldn't quite place it? Just hold the mic to the closest audio source, hit "Tag," and in a few seconds it will tell you the title and artist, and give you a link to the video on YouTube (if available). It'll even link to iTunes so you can download the song. Enjoy this free awesomeness while you still can. There's a nasty rumor that the developer will soon start charging a monthly fee.
