This is a just a quick hack for those wanting to ramp up quickly with their life in Munich. For a more richer and a fuller experience nothing can replace learning the language of the land - German!
There are many German websites that have an English version. But most do not and you need to to know German to follow. These sites are also usually those where the small but important stuff would be located with information that would help you integrate with the real local ways.
Thankfully for those who are clueless about the German language - there is help! Download the Google Chrome browser and the Google Translate plugin for Chrome and you are good to go. The plugin translates pages for you on the fly, so you can read any webpage in the language of your choice (if it is supported by Google Translate).
The above way is only for Desktop PCs - there might be ways to do this for tablets and smartphones, but I have not looked into it at this point.
If you would rather use translate directly (cut/paste approach) then the link to translate is - http://translate.google.com/ !
