In contrast to GNOME, Unity, XFCE etc., xmonad will not show any panels or other elements by default when you log in. (You can add panels if you wish though) Instead, it centers around using keyboard shortcuts to open most programs. Alt+shift+enter should open a terminal and get you started. See http://xmonad.org/tour.html#open or man xmonad for more information. :)

In case you are familiar with xmonad and alt+shift+enter does not respond, I apologize for the paragraph above. Though xmonad ran fine on Ubuntu 11.10 here.
