Nobake: I'm a fan of KDE software myself.
Amarok (amarok.kde.org) - Music player with lyric fetching, Wikipedia integration, and stuff. Works great cross-platform.
Gwenview (
http://gwenview.sourceforge.net/) - Image viewer for pretty much any format. Sadly, on Windows specifically it crashes on opening an file, so may not be worth listing.
Okular (okular.kde.org) - Document viewer. Supports PDF, PS, Tiff, CHM, DjVu, Images, DVI, XPS, ODT, Fiction Book, Comic Book, Plucker, EPub, Fax, Mobipocket.
Kate (kate-editor.org) - Programmer's editor. Syntax highlighting for 180+ languages, auto-indent, bracket matching, etc. Plugins for building, debugging, SQL databases, mail, and more. I can't claim to have used anywhere near what Kate offers, but what I have used works well.
Available for linux in any package repo. For Windows, there's an installer at windows.kde.org that works basically like a linux package manager.
Also, git because there should be a SCM to go with all the programming editors and IDEs in the list.
