Yesterday I think I removed something called Unity webapp integration (I don't remember exactly) Now when I log in to Ubuntu, only the image of the desktop and its content are displayed, there's no top bar, no sidebar on the left. I'm pretty much unable to do anything.

How can I get it back to normal? Please help!

Probably while uninstalling webapps you unistalled some important component. So open a terminal with CTRL + ALT + T or if that doesn't work CTRL + ALT + F1.

Then type sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop

This should work to re-install anything that is missing. If that still doesn't work, please update your question with any other helpful info. – coteyr Nov 21 '12 at 10:19

This more a comment but my reputation does not allow me to post comments. Anyway, if you can open/access terminal, maybe you will be able to restart unity by typing unity. You also have to detach it from terminal by using & disown.
