Danny Piccirillo has posted an awesome Lucid post-install guide on his blog that covers a lot of cool stuff that you can do with Ubuntu 10.04 after installing it, including a great list of quality applications and easy instructions making use of apt URLs.
Check out his table of contents to give you some idea of what he covers:
- Managing Applications
- Basics
- Eye Candy
- Desktop Functionality

I’d love to see it published as a downloadable PDF as I’m sure many people will find it useful!
