BeerSmith is probably the most popular out there. There are several free programs that are pretty damn decent also.

Brewtarget is a good "open source" program. I have used an online app call Beer Calculus before. It has some nice features and lets you keep notes which are accessible from anywhere.

There is another online app called "brewernauts" that looks promising but I haven't tried it out yet.

I STRONGLY suggest, that since you are brewing your first batch, don't get all confused trying to learn software at the same time. On brew day, get yourself a blank sheet of paper and a pencil and WRITE what you do, every step, every time you take a temp. Later on, while you're waiting for fermentation, you can play with different software apps with that data and see which one you like.
