converts ms to bpm and vice-versa - good for plugs like Uaudio which have delay times set in ms and so you have to compute how long a quarter note is (I wish they would compute these things for us). Its free!

This one allows you tap and get the tempo. I think this is handy if you writing a song, and you got a beat in your head - capture the tempo while its fresh.

This one auto-plays a bass groove created randomly I think.

And this one is not musical - but useful - you give it your zipcode (USA) and it tells you the cheapest local gas station. There was an article in the LA Times two weeks ago about how oil companies vary prices greatly, so this is quite useful - especially with the non-stop oil crisis era that the world has now entered.
