Another useful Ubuntu PPA list

It's been a long time since I posted my useful ppa list. Looking at that list and my current PPAs shows that almost everything changed and I could share my new favourites.
  • ppa:ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa Unofficial Firefox nightly builds. This is my main browser for about a year now. Even though sometimes it may be unstable it is great browser. It loosed it's speed in development and innovation for some time, but now it becomes good product again
  • ppa:conscioususer/polly-daily is for Polly Twitter Client which is the only usable desktop twitter client under linux for me.
  • ppa:tuxpoldo/btsync BTSync
  • ppa:webupd8team/sublime-text-3 Latest builds of the best text editor in existence - Sublime Text 3
  • ppa:ubuntu-desktop/ppa Pre-release builds of Unity and other Ubuntu goodness
  • ppa:webupd8team/java Java release by webupd8 team. I need it to run PyCharm, my main IDE for now
  • PyCharm has nonofficial PPA on UbuntuUpdates. But I prefer to go to it's EAP download page  to get fresh build.
To install any of those PPAs type in terminal:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa
sudo apt-get update

After that you can install software from PPA with
sudo apt-get install ...

Those things are PPAs, but you have to either add them manually to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ or with help of this tutorial
  • http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ you can't run away from Google Chrome if you're doing web development these days. Here I also use untested version. And also it is a browser I use when some builds of Firefox Nightly has critical issues.
