What a great list of web apps. I've added it to my del.icio.us bookmarks so I can check out more of them (in my copious spare time between 1 and 5 a.m. Who needs sleep?)
I'm surprised by how many of them I've heard of and used. I like Pandora. It's a fun way to listen to some new artists, and fun to see who they classify as similar to someone I like.
Zillow is great for watching the housing market. Seeing what properties are selling for in the neighborhood. Recently, a house was foreclosed on across the street after falling into disrepair. Someone (builder?) has bought it and fixed it up. It'll be interesting to see if he/she turns around and sells it, and how much for.
I checked out colorblender for the first time, which is an app that lets you identify a base color, then provides five matching colors. It's an easy way to establish a palette, although the choices seem rather predictable. It'd be cool if the developer expanded this so that you could select complementary colors, or accent colors etc.
What's amazing is seeing the apps that are being bought up by Google. Be great to create one of those!

Checked out Zillow. I could have made a "killing" last summer.
