Sometimes I use the top bar but generally I just make a folder named
apps on the desktop and drag anything used frequently from the menus
into it.  That approach used to work across windows/mac/gnome2/kde and
made it possible to find things without traversing someone else's
arcane menu layout.  But now I guess gnome3 wants to be different.
