I just don't understand the how-to pages for installing Ubuntu from USB drive.
Is there any program that can make USB drive from previously downloaded Ubuntu ISO images? Something like that would be pretty handy.

unetbootin is probably the best and the easiest way to make a bootable USB irrespective of the OS you are using to create the USB as it is crossplatform.
It has a very easy interface and options to choose between distributions straightaway from the menu and to select the desired iso image.
Also,creating a bootable USB using Unetbootin will give you a very very simple and easy interface when you boot your machine using the USB.
I would suggest to use this software straightaway without doubt...

There are many different bootable USB drive software out there. Here are the few choices that you have
