I don't mean to sound like a shill, but I took one of Gerry Long's presentations at a uke gathering in San Diego two years ago.
He has some interesting techniques. I learned a heck of a lot in a half hour or so.

Re: Ukulele players out there? (115 replies, posted in Other string instruments)
My goal from my first trip to Hawaii was to return with a ukulele. I found one that looked good, it had a turtle-shaped sound hole. I figured that if I failed at playing it, it would look good hanging on the wall.
It sounded the best of about 10 or so ukes I played. Probably paid to much for it, but who cares...I've had that much fun playing it the past two years!
I'm a classically trained french horn player...but those are hard to cart around and they can be kind of loud. It's also tough to sing while playing.
I just started showing up at a ukulele group near my house. Strumming and singing. It was the most fun I've had in a long time!
Love that uke!
