There is no try, there is only do

Setting up drag and drop is 'very easy' (depending on your level of
experience with such things of course). But as mentioned before not
really something that belongs on a shindig development list (which is
all about making the opensocial infrastructure, not general front end
development)
For instance if you took http://github.com/madrobby/scriptaculous/wikis/draggable
You would just create a div around the gadgets (thats the
'id_of_element' element), set the handle to your 'id_of_title_bar'
element, and create the draggable ... the same pretty much goes for
jQuery, dojo, etc.
The question of 'how to make drag and dropable gadgets' really is just
a question of 'how to make a element on the page drag and droppable',
the gadgets don't add any extra complexity to this, so it is just a
generic javascript question.
I would suggest using the scriptaculous / jquery / dojo forums and
mailing lists for finding out how to do this, since i think many of us
would appreciate it if we kept this to a shindig related developers
list, and not turn it into a 'general javascript help' list :)

I know, there are a lot of libraries for this purpose. Did anyone
tried
this?

That sounds like part of the gadget container rather than the core

eg
jQuery or extJS, depending on what license you want and what level of
accessibility you are after.
Is this what you meant by Drag and Drop ? (Ignore me if not)
