Xcode not in the Applications folder

I have installed xcode on my mac but I am annoyed that I have use Finder to track down the executable every time I want to run it (or User Interface Builder). I have read that it is supposed to show up in the Applications folder under Development but there is no such folder. Is there any way I can get xcode and its associated applications to appear in the Applications folder so its more convenient to use?

We can drag/paste the Xcode.app directly into Applications folder

Sure, open the /Developer directory in Finder and right click on the Applications folder. Choose the 'Make alias' option. An alias is created named Applications alias. Change the aliased folder's name to the one that most fits to you e.g. "XCode". Now, copy this alias into your /Applications directory. There you are.
