These days, there's an app for just about everything! And there are some fantastic apps to help you access useful information while abroad. It's worth conducting a search for international travel and study abroad apps before heading overseas (if you're going to a country with widespread Internet access, that is). A simple search will bring up currency converter apps, weather map apps, friend finders, hotel/hostel finders and so much more. One app we love is AllSubway, which links you up to subway maps in cities around the world. 

Mashable also recently put together a list of their top 10 apps for travelers. Take a look.
