I've never done it, but instructions are here:
http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-gnome3-on-ubuntu-11-04-nattyubuntu-10-10-maverick.html

I've heard that it's easier to install than it is to remove, as in some people have got a broken system trying to remove Gnome3 from Natty, but there are instructions for the removal there as well. ;-)

The easiest way to do this is to upgrade Ubuntu to 11.10.

If you want to keep 11.04, you should add the repository "ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3" and update using the Update Manager. Warning: software in that repository is considered unstable and unsupported!
