Edit, herpa derp, I found it. Press the "star" on any item and it will stick it to the favorites menu. That was so simple that I didn't even notice it at first. Thanks for bringing this menu system to the attention of the windows community, it's a nice replacement thus far.
I like the look of it very much, but it feels a lot like they are totally trying to hide anything that MS put into their new metro menu and or replace them with their own version.
In any event I'm willing to give it a try because it looks more like Win 8 than the classic shell option for me, but is there any instructions anywhere on how to use this?
According to the website I can add items and links to my favorites area in the pokki bar but I failed to find instructions on how to accomplish that.
