Default oil recommendation?

Hi I'm getting ready to change the oil on the 98 accord and I was wondering what oil you guys would recommend. I put Mobil1 10w30 on all my other cars. Can I do the same for this car or is there another one that's better?

Also we have a 2006 Honda civic. We used to take it to the dealer for service and I'm planning on taking it to my regular mechanic from now on. What oil is recommended for that car as well?
