Someone made an AWESOME guide here: http://howtoubuntu.org/things-to-do-after-installing-ubuntu-14-04-trusty-tahr
I keep finding myself installing Ubuntu on other computers and going through this guide again. Because I'm a fan of shortcuts and laziness, I took all of the commands from the guide and compacted them into 1 MASSIVE command. I thought I might not be the only one who'd want this list, so I figured I'd post it. :biggrin:
I've incorporated some suggestions to the commands. The original is in post 4 (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2235066&p=13077541#post13077541) if you want to see.
-----EDIT-----
I uploaded a script to automate all of this.

Either you can copy and paste "the beast" command, or you can download this attached file and then run:
cd ~/Downloads && chmod +x ubuntu-basic-updates.sh && sudo sh ubuntu-basic-updates.sh
The beast:
sudo apt-get update || sudo apt-get install -yr gdebi aptitude &&
if [[ $(getconf LONG_BIT) = "64" ]]
then
echo "64bit Detected" &&
echo "Installing Google Chrome" &&
