What widgets
I've now had my phone for 4 months and said on here a few times that although I like the concept of widgets I struggle to find any that are really useful.
So, what widgets do people have on their home screen/screens? Any stand out ones that you would recommend? |

Across my tablets and phone. Not really that fussed about a whether widget, my weather app currently says it is cloudy, and we are currently in the middle of a rain storm they always look good on a home screen but not really my cup of tea.

Is something like YouTube a widget or just an app?

I have a really good London Underground widget, it shows status for all the lines and is always up-to-date right on your home screen. Very useful if you live in London

I like the following:
Notes of things to do Calendar EMAILS Weather Direct call/text (just a icon of the person on the front screen instead of having to go into contacts so you just tap it to call or text them). Tourch Media player List of next few days upcoming appointments |

Thanks for the suggestions, there are some that are very interesting and I'll try and have a look through them. Direct call and London Underground sound useful.
