How To Add And Remove Droid Widgets And Shortcuts

To customize your Droid home screen with widgets and apps shortcuts:
1) To remove any program or shortcut from the Home Screen: Hold down on the shortcut until you receive haptic feedback and drag it to the Applications Menu until it turns red and displays a trash can, and then release.
2) To add a Shortcut to your Home Screen: Hold your finger on an empty area of the Home Screen until the menu above comes up, and choose Shortcuts. There are a number of different shortcut types you can choose from depending on what Android applications you have installed. To add a website shortcut, choose “Bookmark”. You can then choose from the sites that you have already bookmarked in the browser.
3) To place an application on one of the Home Screen: Hold your finger down on the icon for for the program you want to appear as a shortcut, and then release — it will then appear on the Home Screen panel that you have displayed. You can move shortcuts around by holding your finger down on them until you get a vibration (also referred to as haptic feedback) from the the phone and then drag it to anywhere on that Home Screen that you like.
