How do you keep track of programs and applications when you do a fresh install of Linux or get a new PC?

A lot of programs in my Ubuntu install are rarely used but important. Programs which are not installed by default but I installed them after I read about them from somewhere.

Some examples are:

youtube-dl
exiftool

and there are couple of others I don't remember right now. Some ppas have been added. Some tweaks to make things work.

My question is: How do I keep a track of what's installed in my computer when I move to a new PC or reinstall Ubuntu (or Linux)? How do you remember tweaks installed or ppas added?

edit: Using Ubuntu 14.04
