I usually go to http://www.ukulele-tabs.com for music. They have a lot of great user-submitted songs on there! I think there's even a few YouTuber songs, like from Rhett and Link. Also I have an app called Chords4Ukes that makes finding chords I don't know (and how they should sound like) so much easier.

I play the Ukelele too and I think you should listen to a couple songs by my favorite band Beirut. Here is a song called Postcards From Italy where they play a lot of ukelele: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X61BVv6pLtw. Or a more mainstream (less gypsy) song would be Port of Call: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVQDtkjpyFI. Also I like to check for different chord variations or even how to play them at http://www.ezfolk.com/uke/chords/.

Yes!! I play the ukulele too, and I love to play it all the time, one awesome think I found, go to google, and search ukulele chord chart, and you will get chords. Step two, what's your favorite song? Pick a song that you like, and start playing it!! That's what I do, to play my ukulele!! Once you get the hang of it, it's a bunch of fun!!

A fun song to play on the uke is Tonight You Belong To Me from The Jerk. They have tutorials on youtube. Some other fun ones are the Super Mario Bros Theme and Bohemian Rhapsody. (and I obviously like to play Rhett and Link Songs as well) :D

A website I think is fairly new is ukutabs.com, I like it a bit better than ukulele-tabs.com because it shows you the words. Other than that, you can even use songs that give guitar chords and it will sound fine. The website I use to learn new chords is http://chordlist.brian-amberg.de/en/ukulele/standard/ , which I love. It's great. It has tons of chords and tons of variations, so if one way of playing a chord is hard, you can just use another. For songs to play, I keep a folder of bookmarks of songs I like to play and I go back to them every time I practice.
