That one actually doesn't integrate onto the today screen though.
Egress is good, but my favorite has to be PocketRSS.
It actually does. Not sure what level of integration you are looking for as I haven't used the other products mentioned here. This one allows you to scroll any of the RSS feeds in the today screen, using one or more lines.

I know I've seen today screens w/o the big ass clock. How do I disable it? I've searched and read 10+ pages and can't figure it out.
wow, you must have not searched that much or that hard otherwise you would have found HTC Home Customizer

I've got customizer. I just can't find the option to remove the big ass clock. I've seen screenshots of today screens without it. Are those folks using a different app?

Just disable HTC Home, then enable messaging, tasks, callender and most of everything is back without the clock.
but i like the other stuff on HTC Home. Isn't there a way to do both?

The best you can do is disable the 'home' tab.
You should be able to do this in the Start->Settings->Today->HTC Home tab
If not, search the forums for the newest version of HTC Home.

So after a couple of months using the Hero I wanted to share the Widgets I still use. My sense UI now has allot of app icons but I still find most of these Widget useful. Please add any suggestions and I will post them up on page. Lets create a resource to make the iphone peeps jealous
3RD PARTY WIDGETS:
BBC News (8/10) two widgets on my home page one for most popular and another for tech or sport
News Buzz (7/10) Still good but have stopped using it
Weather Bug (small) (5/10) Removed it
S2 CalenderWidget (9/10) for me by far the best calendar widget (two types to choose from)
Andriod and Me (small)(3/10) If nothing else to do a nice for android information
Twidriod Pro (8/10) simple but works well
Google scoreboard (9/10) I like this allot good for all sports updates
Facebook (don’t have an account I‘m a twitter man)
HTC WIDGETS:
HTC calendar (small) (8/10) Removed
HTC Settings GPS/Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/Mobile (8/10) Good functions I now only have gps as ModaCo's roms have a wifi off app already installed
HTC Weather/Clock (9/10) Still nice looking but have gone for 2X2 icon without clock
HTC bookmarks (8/10) still use them
HTC footprints (Large) (8/10) Was fun at first but now removed
HTC Album (4/10) Removed
HTC Picture frame( 4/10) still use it
Contacts (8/10) nice but don’t use
Other than the stock HTC widgets - small music player, messaging and the ones you listed, I also use Google's Scoreboard. If you're into sports, its pretty good.
Oh and I have the Facebook widget too.
Someone should write one for xda-devs, it could show you PMs and when people reply to your threads/posts.... Or maybe I'm just beginning to rely on the Hero just a little too much these days.
I agree Floridak xda dev should be more mobile friendly. It would be nice to get updates via a widget. It would also be nice yo have a mobile edition web page that you can post on.
+1
totaly agree with the XDA-widget!
yep xda mobile support would be great

what's different than getting to mob portal from web portal home page? (other than saving a click)
lets get back on topic. Any new Widgets out there?
try feedr. It's $0.99 but you can create an rss feed of xda forums and then place as many widgets on your desktops as you like..I like it a lot.
i use the normal xda website all the time from my hero, i find it great and if you zoom in the auto format setting kicks in to save you the hassle
Did anyone hear of widget that would show/hide my number when calling with one press on a home screen ? That would save a lot of effort

I found interesting the Volume Widget Pro.
It's pretty nice and really useful to change music and alarm volume level from the home screen. And it has lot's of options to configure the colors of the widget.
What I'm using.
Twidgit, nice little widget shows the latest tweet.
BBC news, small widget that shows the latest headline.
Did have 'android and me' but it wasn't much of interest on it.
Ditto engaget.
I posted about this issue a while back when i first got my Hero. I was told it was not possible then. I`m hoping someone can remedy this issue as i hate having to scroll through 30-40 apps to find what i`m looking for. Even WM 6.1 has this facility!

My HD7 did a HTC Hub update this morning, it seemed like a pretty major download (took about 10 minutes) My firend had the same on his Mozart yesterday, anyone know what is in it?

Nothing... It seems to me, that the whole HTC HUB is the swan song of the HTC UI. The only very good thing is the HTC wheather and its pitty, that it is not the separate application with its own live tile. Its the best weather app. on mobile phones so far.
The HTC weather app is gorgeous, but the lack of weather info on the tile means I have removed the HTC hub from my start screen and replaced it with Weather Bug, which not only keeps the tile updated with the latest weather, it also sends me notifications of weather warnings, which is neat. Weatherbug may not be as pretty as HTC Weather but it's a lot more functional.

I did the same and removed HTC HUB from start screen. But for the weather info I am using Microsoft app. Its clean and fast - faster than weather bug, only the tile is not the live tile.
I was using weatherbug, but the weather channel seemed to update more often and the UI is awesome.

UI is awsome when you get there. But I am not abble to get through the first screen and enter my location. None of the two options works.

Ive noticed since the update, they added many new apps, but now the market lags a lot and today has been locking up as I scroll through.
any one else?
There's been about 2 or 3 updates since the HD7 was released in October, for each one there has been no info. I'm really not impressed with the HTC "Experience" on WP7, it fells like they can't compete and can't be bothered. Even the way the weather app is clunked onto the Hub and is the only one of their apps that cannot be pinned as a tile.
This time next year, I will be hard pushed to stay with HTC.

As I said earlier, it looks like the swan song of the HTC UI at least on WP7 platform.

I hope so. Sense has always been next to useless. Apart from a few animations it was a terrible interface.
I even turned it off on my WinMo 6 phone.
I'm looking for a good RSS reader for our form factor. I've tried the official Google Reader app and despite having compatibility mode disabled in Spare Parts it still only takes a fraction of the screen. I usually use Dogg on my Evo but it lacks Google Reader integration.

Try Newsrob. Its been my favorite since day 1 with my Evo and works really well on the gtab. Pulse is nice too.

Are you talking about the new Google Reader app that just launched yesterday? I didn't see the issue about it only taking a fraction of the screen.
It's a good basic reader, but I do find a lot of the bells and whistles in NewsRob to make RSS reading much more enjoyable on the tab. (And I'm a heavy RSS user.)
Pulse. So amazing on the tab.

It did that until I updated with the latest version 1.7.3

Pulse is the bomb! I use it every day!
I'd never tried pulse before, and I agree it does look fantastic on the big screen; but has anyone tried the widgets? I keep getting an error that the homescreen doesn't have room, even on an empty screen. Anyone else have this problem, and find a fix? This is on the latest version to be gotten from the market.
The Pulse widgets work fine for me on VEGAn-TAB 1.00 Beta 2.
