The apps I use
Office: OpenOffice.org, as it's pretty much the standard on Linux desktops.

Email: I have Evolution set up for my Yahoo mail.

Image editing/drawing: For most editing, I use the GIMP, but for advanced stuff I'd recommend Blender or Inkscape for SVG.

CD/DVD burning software: A lot of people swear by K3B, but for data burning I use Gnome's built-in disc writing tool, and for music I use Serpentine.

Messaging: GAIM.

RSS: Other than using Firefox's Live bookmarks feature, I'm not much into RSS.

Utilities: Gnome's File-Roller program is the default on my machine, and can handle any compressed file I have a command-line tool for.

Other stuff: Second Life. Yes, they have a native Linux client for it, and there's an in-world Linux User Group(I'm a member, btw).
