Ok let me be the first one
My "cool apps":
Absolute no.1 Better Keyboard (paid) - I will never use any other keyboard than this, absolutely the best keyboard I've ever used, I hate most of the present keyboards because I can't turn off auto-correct (Slide It or something like that, etc., I'm a very very very fast typer and I don't need any help) and the keys are extended for the whole width of the screen, no space wasted!
2. PowerAMP (paid) - very very good music player (the first app I've bought on the market)
3. Dolphin Browser HD (free) - for me the best and the most user-friendly browser for the Android phone
4. IncrediControl (free) - app for setting CPU voltage, really easy to use!
5. No-frills CPU (free) - app for controling CPU frequency (I only use it to change i/o schedule, I don't like overclocking, especially on the phones)
6. Gun Bros (free) - awesome game, shoot'em up-style
7. Minecraft Pocket Edition (paid) - I think almost everyone knows what's Minecraft ;P
8. Modern Combat 3 (paid, market version) - cool FPS game from Gameloft
9. aTrackDog (free) - one of the oldest app on the market but very very useful! It tracks your apps and checks if any of it is outdated.
10. EDGE EX (paid) - I have a fondness for this app, I have played it on my old k750i, brings up a tear on my eye
11. Galaxy On Fire 2 (free) - awesome space RPG shooter!
EDIT:
12. Barcode Scanner (free) - the best scanner for both QR and barcodes.
13. Astro PRO (paid) - very useful file manager
14. Gadu-Gadu - some kind of Polish equivalent for icq or windows messenger, very very popular in my country.

Have already used it.. Still prefer the real app.. And hey, you got the name wrong..
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
QuicKPic -- Because stock Gallery just sucks so bad.
Ghost Commander -- Every OS needs a file manager, and this is one of the best. Great for rooters, too!
Wuala -- Like Dropbox, but with decent security features.
Android Central app -- Duh! Keep up with your fav devices and Android rumors on the go.
Hacker's Keyboard -- Awesome general purpose keyboard. Extra-must-haavy if you are on a tablet.
More:
CPU spy,
Writepad,
Super Video, and
Touch Retouch.

Bubbleshooter (game) & Dropbox (app) for sure!
Super User / SuperSU - the most important.
Your phone is gay without one of them.
I'm learning Russian and German so Dictionaries and Google translator are my favorite apps.
Google Authenticator - Now I can sync my passwords without worrying.
Google Plus - I don't use Facebook.
and Google Finance.
Apart from what's already been mentioned above...
Just Pictures - I have my local, facebook, picasa and deviant art photos all in one place.
Pulse - much prefer this to Flipboard or currents as you can see more news stories at a glance and decide which ones you then want to read, instead of having to flip through each story individually.
Freenote+ - my go to note taking app
Dolphin Browser HD
Whatsapp - hardly send any sms messages now
Picsart
Pro HDR Camera
Caustic - easily the best Android music sequencer
Audio Evolution - easily the best Android multi track recorder
Tape machine - the best app for playing and chopping audio files
Loopstack - hours of fun. the best looper on Android.
Easyband - good for mapping out song ideas
Solo - nice for noodling around with song ideas
My guitar - more realistic than Solo, but a bit fiddly on the touch screen as your fingers have no traction on the strings.
Moon+ Reader
Showtimes
aCar - good for tracking costs and mileage
Philips DictationRecorder
My favorite app is Philips Dictation Recorder

Floating Audio Player. Pretty useless since most music players have notification widgets, but I'm using it since Google Music doesn't recognize mp4s renamed to mp3.

Suggesting Naked Browser. Free browser based on Webkit UI, so very light and quick.

Looks great. Resizing is also great.

Does this use the same YouTube API that Falcon Pro for Twitter just implemented into their app? The video player in Falcon and this floating player look awfully the same. Actually, they look exactly the same. The Kobe Bryant video is on Falcon, while the Samsung Galaxy Note II video is your player. I can even control the other video by pressing play on one. When I play the Kobe Bryant one, the Galaxy Note video by MKBHD in your player starts playing. You should check it out, just sayin...
Nice app though!
