the two ways  I use are the ports collection and sysinstall

alot of people are fans of pkg_add -r, but someone else can talk about 
that.

Check to see if you have ports in /usr/ports.  This is the feature that 
every other OS slobbers over...

If it didn't install with the initial install, download the ports from 
the relevant ftp site.

cd to the directory of the port you want to install, and type make 
install and make clean if you want.

Sysinstall is the cutely gui located in /stand.
