There are at least three ways in Ubuntu to switch between open windows in a workspace. You can find the window on the bottom panel taskbar and click to bring it up on the screen, or you can use \keystroke{Alt+Tab} to select the window you wish to work on. Hold down the \keystroke{Alt} key, and keep pressing the \keystroke{Tab} button until the window you're looking for appears in the popup. If the window is visible on your screen, you can click any portion of it to raises it above all other windows.

\marginnote{You may find that there are programs in the \menu{Applications} menu that you don't use frequently, or just don't want to be displayed on the menu. To hide those applications (without deleting the actual programs), click on \menu{System \then Preferences \then Main Menu}. Find the programs in the right panel that you want to hide from the menu, and deselect them in the ``Show'' column.} There are three menu headers in the top panel. Let's take a look at these in more detail, starting with the \menu{Applications} menu.

Ubuntu has several games built in for your entertainment. If you enjoy card games, check out \application{AisleRiot Solitaire}. Perhaps you're looking for more of a challenge: in that case, there's \application{gBrainy} and \application{Sudoku}. The \menu{Games} menu also includes \application{Mahjongg}, \application{Mines} (similar to Windows' Minesweeper game) and \application{Quadrapassel} (similar to Tetris).
