So, why don’t we promote some other free & open projects there that are useful and not related to Ubuntu?
I’ve been gathering some of them at http://jancborchardt.wordpress.com/links/

http://identi.ca
http://joindiaspora.com (once it’s running)
http://openetherpad.com
http://libre.fm
http://sparkleshare.org
http://wikipedia.org
http://openstreetmap.org
http://dict.cc
http://p2pu.org
http://flossmanuals.net
http://oercommons.org
http://openfontlibrary.org

And maybe also some non-digital:
http://couchsurfing.org
http://freecycle.org

When they already have Ubuntu, we should help them dive deeper into free culture. I know it took long for me to get to know all these massively useful sites.

On the current bookmarks:
Why ubuntulinux.org and not just call it ubuntu.com like it is everywhere else?
Launchpad answers should definitely stay! The direct connection to everything else (including frequently asked questions) makes it much easier to operate than a forum.
I’m not entirely sure on Debian. If that is there, GNOME should be too. On the other hand, it is not useful for most.
