fresh installation of gvim on ubuntu. where should I put my plugins?

I just installed gvim on fresh installation of ubuntu lucid. I've messed this up before that's why I want to start on the correct step here.

Where should I keep all my plugins and my .vimrc??

my current runtimepath on gvim is:

runtimepath=~/.vim,/var/lib/vim/addons,/usr/share/vim/vimfiles,/usr/share/vim/vim72,/usr/share/vim/vimfiles/after,/var/lib/vim/addons/after,~/.vim/after

one thing that i've never been able to get working on gvim is snipMate. Anyone has pointers on having that work with gvim?

Plugin folder is always under ~home/.vim or ~home/vimfiles your vim configuration file or .vimrc always in your ~home/ as for example: ~home/.vimrc

Snipmate fully works for me under Ubuntu. unzip it correclty and it should work right. BTW a great great plugin.

I use pathogen with ~/.vimrc and plugins in ~/.vim/bundle, more details here. You can see an example here.
