This site has a wealth of information. Unfortunately the search feature is kind of crappy but if spend the time to dig through old articles and forums you'll learn a lot! We're generally a helpful bunch, but you'll want to do some searches of your own first, otherwise people will just tell you to search anyway =P
Here's a primer that covers the usual beginners' questions to get you started:

Welcome. I am new to posting here as well, but I have been lurking for a while. The information you will find in these forums will blow you away. Enjoy and get out there!
