Pencil - Traditional 2D animation software
Inkscape - Adobe Illustrator-like vector editor
ColorPic - Color picker (i.e. "Gee, I want to use the color of her shirt" *uses ColorPic*)
Blender - 3D content creation

Desktop Apps
Freez Screen Video Capture - Take a video screenshot of anything you're doing
Handbrake - Converts DVD videos to computer formats
DVDVideoSoft - Converts pretty much anything, anywhere from YouTube to PSP to MP3.
Skype - Online phone and video calls
Plaxo - The ultimate online address book

Audio
Audacity - Incredible audio editor, plug-ins available
Juice - Organizes and captures your podcasts
EphPod - Similar to iTunes, but does more, including moving music from your iPod to a new computer!

That's all for now. Have fun!
