You probably want to earn some Bitcoin, so I recommend using some faucets like freebitco.in or moonbitcoin. If you want, you can level up your account and join a signature campaign.
Amazing reception, thank you all for jumping in with so much information. It is a lot to take in and I am taking steps to make sure I do it properly. I spent the day reading about block mining alone and if you really get beneath the currency there is a ton to learn. I will check out all that you have suggested and look forward to being a member here.
Much appreciated, Bryan
