I would also add Apps Organizer (free in the market). It does exactly what it says. Once set up, you will never have a need to open your apps screen again.

Had to force close SuperDial.

Screebl looks cool, though. Not sure that Apps Organizer buys me that much. I might play with it more, though.

Installed Screebl at 11:30 and did a bit of configuration. Unplugged my phone and went about my day. At 7 PM, I had 5% battery remaining. Spare parts reports that Screebl had been using the CPU and the sensor for 7 and a half hours. I don't think I'll leave it enabled.

You must've had the configuration so that it had your screen on the whole time. Check the inactivity setting as well as the orientation settings.

Screeble seems like a good idea, but more of an annoyance than anything else. But whatever floats your boat. Definitely could work
