If you have 3.0.1 you are running Ubuntu 9.04 (or lower). To install the
.debs for standard OOo:

$ cd <path to /DEB>
$ sudo dpkg -i .deb

Example on the first command:

$ cd /home/<username>/<nameofrelease>/DEBS

Should do the trick. You'll then find the shell to run the program in:
/opt/openoffice.org3/program/soffice

$ /opt/openoffice.org3/program/soffice

Will start the program. You can also use that as the command if you wish
to add a menu item in Applications|Office (note you can find the icons
in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/)

If you'd like to install the Ubuntu 3.1.1 version, then follow Javier's
advise and install the ppa version. The instructions are pretty simple
via https://launchpad.net/~openoffice-pkgs/+archive/ppa However if you
get confused, here is a step-by-step:

<http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Install-OpenOffice-org-3-1-on-Ubuntu-9-04-111105.shtml>

Or:
$ echo -e ‘echo “#PPA openoffice-pkgs
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ppa/ubuntu $(lsb_release
-sc) main” | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ppa.list
gpg –keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com –recv 247d1cff
gpg –export –armor 247d1cff | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update
sudo aptitude -y safe-upgrade
sudo aptitude -y dist-upgrade
‘ > ./oooupgrade.sh
