finding apps in unity desktop?

[Hank Smith]

Hello I looked at the keyboard shortcut list for unity desktop for
http://askubuntu.com/questions/28086/what-are-unitys-keyboard-and-mouse-shortcuts
I am still trying to figure out how to get to my apps.
how do I do this?
I am not understanding something. not sure if its yunity or what but I 
can't seem to get to my apps or anything.
I tried alt f2 and also the windows key.
can some one help me out?
also if there is any audio tutorials for unity desktop to it would be 
appreciated.
when I used linux last it was with gnome so this is totally 100 percent 
new and verry different.
thanks bunches.
Hank
