Your Ubuntu Linux "Guide on the Side"

This WIKI is a resource for people to learn how to work in the Open Source environment.
I would like to share from what I have learned when using Ubuntu Linux and have learned when using the Linux operating system over the past 12 years...

I intend to write full notes on how to use many of the applications listed below, but until then, I will provide links to documentation and list other resources such as tutorials and textbooks (if available) and possibly youtube videos for visual demonstrations...

Below are links to pages to provide useful help.
