I use Tasker a lot for scripting certain actions automatically

For example
Set phone to vibrate during meetings
Set phone to vibrate when plugged in between 10pm and 6am
Set phone noises (not ringer) to silent between 8am and 6pm M-F
Turn on GPS when various apps launch, etc.

Its pretty nifty, although the UI is one of the worst I've ever seen.

I also like using MyTracks to map out hiking paths. It can upload straight to Google Maps too, which is awesome.
