Ubuntu Tweak is an application designed to config Ubuntu easier for everyone. It provides many useful desktop and system options that the default desktop environment doesn't provide. At present, it's only designed for the Ubuntu GNOME Desktop, and always follows the newest Ubuntu distribution.
I call Ubuntu Tweak as Make Up Kit for Ubuntu because its really worth. It completely changes the look of your Ubuntu with its tweaks and theme functionality. It also gives you to freedom to install apps that are not available in Ubuntu Software Center.
