Two things which I found helped a lot (and are mentioned in the referenced thread above but I'll mention explicitly here to save some digging..) yum install gnome3-shell-extensions-dock This adds something like the vertical bar with favorite application icons that is on the left side of the screen in the Overview mode, to the right side and makes it visible all the time. The second was to yum install gnome-tweak-tool run it, and in the File Manager section, turn on "Have File Manager handle the desktop". This allows any things you had in your gnome2 ~/Desktop directory (including program launchers) to appear (and function) on your Gnome 3 desktop. I'm not sure if there is a way of creating new launchers in Gnome 3 -- I've been just using the ones I created in F11's Gnome 2. I am still find moving back and forth between workspaces to be a PITA tho.
