Usually, I will do something like the following...
I almost always start with a nice modest dose of lab sharpening. Then, correct any color cast if there happens to be one with curves. I'll adjust curves some more usually to bring out some shadows or midtones some (as I think the 300d usually underexposes shots).
Then, depending on the image, I'll adjust saturation accordingly, usually bump it up a bit and tweak this or that. I'll clone out any imperfections or distracting elements.
Then if I'm just posting it on the web, I'll resize it, and do a final sharpening then add a border and usually a copyright.
--
Obviously some images need more tweaking in certain areas than others. You could try searching the internet for 'photoshop workflow' or so -- There's a lot of people out there with extensive writeups on their workflows.
