Manuals and user guides
The offical user documentation and manual. It is very general.
A very good “how-to” guide to quickly find a solution for common questions and problems. There is also one for Kubuntu available here.
Official IRC and mailing lists
The Ubuntu channels can be found on the Freenode network, irc.freenode.net and the main room is #ubuntu and it is rather crowdy. Check the link above for the other channels.
Ubuntu user’s technical support, not for general discussions.
Ubuntu developers mailing list
The subject says it all but anyone may subscribe. Probably incredibly geeky.
Newsletters and guides
The Ubuntu weekly newsletter summarizing what happened in the Ubuntu world. Use rss and then you wont miss anything and it also catches the Full Circle Magazines. A must read for Ubuntu users.
The magazine for the Ubuntu community. Includes full and detailed reviews, guides, how-to’s, interviews etc. Recommended.
Ubuntu Video is a video portal that takes the best Ubuntu-related videos on the Internet, from places like YouTube and Google Video, and centralizes them in one convenient spot.

Good list of Ubuntu websites here. I’m glad Ubuntu Brainstorm made the list– it’s the easiest way for non-programmers to share their ideas about the future of Ubuntu. I would also urge more people to use Launchpad to submit bug reports. It’s even easier in Hardy, where Apport will catch and upload bugs very easily.
