Oh, yes, while I mentioned versatility and pliability, it’s also a delight when a single-purpose app works really, really well (such as WriteMonkey).

Speaking of web apps, I should have mentioned Gingko, which also has a fun factor for me.

And Caret (text editor) on Chrome OS (closest I’ll get to the Sublime Text experience for free).

And browsing on my Chromebook (which makes browsing on any of my other machines a drudgery in comparison, even though I enjoy some of my Firefox extensions)...
