Advanced Task Killer is pointless on android as android manages memory usage properly, if anything this will waste the battery.
3G watchdog
Battery snap
Google Goggles (infact most google apps)
^^^ all good
My Samsung Galaxy S1 is so dodgy that it I am forced to use Advanced Task Killer to force close programs that are crashing the phone.
What's 3G watchdog about?

Thats fair enough then, but the majority of time task killer will close an app thats running in the background that is needed to be left open, so its a case of app is closed by task killer, app reopens itself, then task killer closes it etc etc causing unnecessary usage.
3G watchdog is a monitor of the 3G network and tells you how much you've used, you set your plans limits and when its reset, 3G watchdog will warn you when your usage is close to the limit.
Google goggles is great, i've used it a few times on a profile site to scan someones photo and its given me the actress the 'lady' is using pics of lol 
Call confirm is a must for me too, it basically pops up a box when you goto dial someone asking if you ment to call, saves accidently calling someone when phone is in pocket.

I would suggest deleting the app that instrusively keeps trying to open up after being closed, as that up will cause battery drain.

Shoutcast . Thousands of streaming radio stations at varying bitrates
sounds alot mlike the tune-in radio app, just be careful about using on the move, outside wifi coverage
mine popped up a warning that it can use up to 100mb per hour. you could easliy buzz through your monthly allowance in less than a day
