I got those plus:

to-do tasks lists

Alpha Jax
Weather Channel

Too many to list. At last count, 46 tiles including the built-in's. HTC Hub is gone (really gone, deleted). Most pinned apps I use at least once or twice a week and several every day. But some, like Maps I just like to have handy rather than scrolling my long list of 150+. If there was a Favorites hub, I could probably put about 20 of those tiles in there, making navigation a bit easier.

Top of the list: communication stuff (phone, people,favorites,messaging,mail(3),BoardExpressPro, Twitt). Next, tasks, reminders, games hub, music, pictures. Then IE, alt browser, search app, maps, RSS readers.

That's followed by two black tiles as a break and then a bunch of apps that I don't use that often but like to have quick access to. Very bottom of the screen is Settings & Marketplace, with a few sports apps and shopping above that. So when I slam down to the bottom of the list I see 8 often used tiles. Slam to the top and I get 7 regularly used tiles. Things are grouped by relevance.

A bit cumbersome. That's why I would love to see a Favorite Apps hub where I could pin apps that don't have live tiles, but I want quick access to. That would cut 20 off the Start screen.

I don't have a ton of apps pinned. 3rd party wise I've got Kindle and Netflix pinned. Would you consider the official Twitter client 3rd party? I've got that up there too.

 

[Luisraul924]

WP7 News, Board Express Pro, Twitter, and SlapDash Podcasts.

Other apps I have pinned that may or may not be classified as 3rd party but came from the marketplace rather than pre-installed are:

Microsoft Weather (got tired of Weatherbug's instability with the live tile)
Facebook
HTC YouTube (I really hate fukin Google for having their heads up their a$$es. I know I have a bada$$ YouTube client but HTC isn't the only OEM making WP7s and what others have to use just sickens me)

 

[Luisraul924]

Oh crap were counting removed tiles too? Damn I can't even remember lol... Well my layout is as follows:

IE--Phone
Me--People Hub
Hotmail--Messaging
--Calendar--
WP7 News--Marketplace
Bing Maps--Settings
--Pictures Hub--
Zune Hub--Xbox Live Hub
Microsoft Weather--Board Express Pro
Facebook--Twitter
HTC YouTube--SlapDash Podcasts

That's pretty much mine I'm sure you can understand the way I laid it out...

 

[Jay Bennett]

For me:

Facebook
Twitter
IGN
Wordpress
TVShow
RateYourBeer

and two of my own projects under development. I removed every default one except people, phone, messaging, calendar, games, zune and marketplace. The rest are favourite contacts and email accounts

edit: forgot IE of course is pinned

 

[Duvi]

cool setups all. i may have to set mine up two different ways... when my device is being used as my primary (meaning sms and calls) and when it's pretty much just a data device (wifi-only). when it's wifi-only, i won't need phone & messaging, but would definitely like mail and others that use data.

 

[cdook]

Oh here's my exact layout. I just added more tiles to it...

Phone--People
Messaging--Hotmail
Music--Xbox Live
--Calendar--
IE--Twitter
Netflix--Kindle
Board Express--Alien Reader
--Pictures--
MSN weblink--Weather
Stocks--Marketplace
Close friend1--Close friend2

 

[baylorbear134]

My layout:
phone--countdown
messaging--weatherbug
zune--smart tile
facebook-- yahoo mail
espn scorecenter-- marketplace
wp7 news-- alphajax
pictures
xboxlive-- IE
4th and mayor-- last.fm
fim-- maps
calender
me-- imdb
netflix-- thumba
a to b-- shazam
microsoft office -- youtube (lazyworm)
ustream viewer-- urban dictionary(word of day)
pocket recorder-- notes
at&t uverse mobile

...Wow I have alot. Im definitely in support of a favorites hub.

 

[cdook]

@baylorbear134 I didn't know there was a free turn by turn app out there. A-to-B looks pretty useful.

Ah, I'm such a rebel by having no tiles.
