I use spotlight exclusively to launch applications. Launchpad I used exactly once before unpinning it from the dock.

OS X widgets turned out about as well as every other attempt to make desktop widgets. Banishing them to their own virtual desktop solves the problem of it being impossible to use them due to that there's always windows in the way, but it doesn't solve the problem that apparently no one actually has any ideas for desktop widgets that are more than mildly useful.

Launchpad is good for reviewing what you have installed. Every once in a while I'll go through it and find crap. Forgot about.
