Google Scholar
As college students go through college life, research requirements have become very rigorous. Gone were those days when you could easily access a website and cite it as the research source.

Google Docs
This is another favorite, especially for group projects. Multiple people can edit documents simultaneously, and you can see these changes in real-time.
