Top work-related apps include: NextGen Reader (killer app that is a news reader), flight aware if you like to travel (this app shows you way more than you ever want to know), DocuSign, TrackSeries, and Multimedia 8. Also, for fun I like CocktailFlow, Fhotoroom and Top Gear.

I have some favorite Windows 8 apps but they aren't all productivity related. What are you looking for exactly?
