The raspberry pi is a really amazing piece of hardware, any computing enthusiast would really love to have.Just reading the specs makes one think about the many things they can do with it, ideally its a small linux box.
I've compiled a series of tools which i've found useful and which you might want to setup on a raspberry pi

- Emacs - well, we also have the vim guys but i won't dive deep into this.Its nice to have your favourite editor handy in the terminal.Remember to place an alias for terminal mode.
- Apache - Unless you're serving over 200 concurrent requests, then apache will do.In anycase if you had such a high number of requests then you could afford the heavier guns.
- Sqlite3 and/or mysql - sqlite is just brilliant for such devices, i'm surprised it doesn't come out of the box with wheezy.
- pip,virtualenv,virtualenvwrapper - the pi means python and these tools go hand in hand with any python development.
- Git - Version control in case you want to do some coding on the pi.
Now you are ready to go.Feel free suggest some tools which you found useful and should be added to this list through the comments.
