    Cubby

    Price: Free
    Platform: iOS (iPhone and iPad), Android

    Cubby lets you sync any directory between multiple computers. By default, it also syncs directories to the cloud, so you can access them from the web or from the mobile app. But you can turn off cloud sync for any folder to save space in your online account. Cubby, like Live Mesh, gives you 5GB of free cloud storage, and an unlimited amount of computer-to-computer syncing. Prices for storage plans beyond 5GB have not yet been determined. You can make any file public, and get a link to it to share with others, assuming that the file is synced to the cloud. Cubby also does file versioning for data stored on its servers, so it can be used as a backup service.

    Developed Down Under

    Price: Free
    Platform: Windows Phone 7

    Because we are Australians who love Australian app makers, and, by extension, Australian apps, Developed Down Under is one of those things that warms our cockles. It showcases apps made in Australia for the Windows Phone platform, with search options that allow you to pinpoint apps that have a local focus, such as news or weather apps. It's a great idea, and we're excited to see how it takes off.

    Google Currents

    Price: Free
    Platform: Android

    Google's on a roll with the updates. Currents, Google's take on news aggregation, has not only been finally rolled out globally, it's also received a few nifty new features into the bargain. If you've not looked into it before, it's a beautifully designed app; it collects your favourite sites in an easy-to-access format for keeping up with the world on the go. It's quite lovely to navigate; everything's very clear and easy to use. Its new features are excellent; it syncs automatically so that you don't have to press a button, you can set editions to save for offline reading and you can translate complete editions to one of 38 languages.

    Just before Instagram was sold to Facebook, it finally announced that it is available for Android users.
