If you like to read about linux, Rutebook is a very good source of
information. Link here:
http://rute.2038bug.com/index.html.gz
It is also available in the ubuntu repositories, look for it in either the
software store (I forget the exact name, I mostly use KDE) or in synaptic.
Copy and paste this in a web browser to read it
/usr/share/doc/rutebook/html/rute.html
Another good read for Ubuntu is the Ubuntu Pocket book. you can get it here:
http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/index_main.html
or from any bittorrent app.
Of course there is always the ubuntu forums at
http://ubuntuforums.org/
and the ubuntu user mailing list
https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users
Lots and lots of good information there, should keep you busy for a while :)
