Yes there are a lot of lists like this already. This one is my own, a list of software I installed right after reinstallingUbuntu. These go well with the Gnome Desktop.

exaile – Music player based on Amarok.

gnome Do – Amazingly simple way to open programs, files and much more, even tweet.

Vlc – The universal video player.

Tasque – A simple todo list which works well with Remember the Milk.

wine – For running windows programs.

picasa – For all your photo editing, resizing, etc, needs.

virtualbox – For programs that can’t run on wine.

google earth – For exploring the world.

ubuntu-restricted-extras – To make sure the wma’s and other propriotory formats work.
