I swear someone mentioned this, but I can't find it via search, so maybe I'm thinking of somewhere else, but I've been using this application called Trello a lot. The iPhone app is okay for reference, but I use their web-app more. It's kind of like a to-do list, but more project based. You make board with sub-lists/topics. It's come in really handy as I am applying for jobs post-grad- I have a jobs board and lists within the board for "research" "draft [write cover letter, collect reference letters, etc]," "future [apply to this when it opens up]," "done," and then I can color label for different things ("interviewed 4/23" "resume on file"), add links to applications, add comments about an interview, etc. Obviously, I love it.
Other go-tos:
Google Drive and Dropbox- I use Drive for more personal things that I like to keep handy, and Dropbox usually for things I need to share with casts, mainly because I have more storage on Dropbox.
Evernote
Pocket
HopStop- has great maps/directions not only for NYC but a ton of public transit systems
Yelp- "crap, where is a hardware store?"
I keep hearing that Wundernote is all that and a bag of chips, but I still think paper and pen is the only way to actually get the things on my to-do list done.
Also, I don't think other Fringe Fests use this, but if you are ever a VD or ACR at FringeNYC, Salesforce Chatter has an app that helped me lose, regain and lose my sanity again, especially leading up to tech.
