Index Card Is a handy iPad app by DenVog that costs $4.99. I have found it to be terrifically useful and as a bonus, it syncs to Scrivener. Create index cards on a cork board background, type notes on them, rearrange them to your heart's content, save them, email them or sync them. It's a simple program to learn, too.

I use it for brainstorming and outlining on the iPad. I jot down quick scenes or ideas and then move them around until I am satisfied. It is very handy for organizing the genealogy classes I teach as well. The best part is that I can use it in a comfy chair or at Starbucks when I have a few minutes to play around with ideas.
