It's a nitpick, but one I gotta point out. With the exception of the apt-get/aptitude commands (They most likely work in Debian too), this is really nothing that any other Linux distro can't do. My beef is with your title. "Ubuntu terminal". While I realize this site is about a Ubuntu user, you should take care to not give undue credit. At least mention that other distrobutions can do most of those commands. (Even Windows can do the telnet commands at the top.) So maybe a better title would have been: "Useful and fun things to do with the Terminal"? Eh. It’s a nitpick, but one I gotta point out.
