So you have unpacked and installed your brand new Ubuntu OS and are wondering what to do or where to go next, well here I am on hand to help you along.

  1. http://www.ubuntu.com Ok, I know that this is a no brainer and that you probably went here to get your OS itself, but for the sake of completeness, this needs to be right up there.
  2. http://ubuntuforums.org Yep, this one is a life saver, get stuck into the community they will help you through most of the problems that you will come across.
  3. http://www.ubuntugeek.com/free-ubuntu-linux-e-books.html Check out this blog if you want reading material. This is all free and great stuff. Ubuntu Geek, great site.
  4. http://www.ubuntu-art.org Because you must customize your computer it is your right and duty!
  5. http://tombuntu.com Another great blog site, not updated enough in my opinion! If your reading Mr Tombuntu!
  6. http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com The great thing about Ubuntu is that it promotes community feedback, go here and have your say.
  7. http://www.markshuttleworth.com A blog written by the person responsible for heading up the design for Ubuntu, formally the CEO until he stepped down at the end of 2009.
  8. http://www.phoronix.com This site came out like a storm. Brilliant site that keeps you up to date with the absolute latest and greatest in the Linux desktop World, but definitely a techie read.
  9. http://omgubuntu.co.uk Tricks, tips and news for Ubuntu users. New kid on the block but I like what I see
  10. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu Non open source software as the site says, however, it will help you watch shows and listen to music in closed formats without problems.

I have finally updated it after a long time. I have noticed that people are still interested, I am thinking of expanding it to top 20. Let me know what sites are definite must have for this list, or if something should be removed.
