I know how hard it is to get started using bitcoin, and how frustrating it can be to just buy one!
So here's where you go to get started.
Wallet:If you're yet to even get a bitcoin wallet, I recommend
http://blockchain.info they have iPhone and android apps to help you manage your bitcoins if like me you're not always sitting at your computer.
To buy bitcoins with a credit card and get a wallet service, my new favorite is coinbase.com
Free bitcoins:After you've made your bitcoin wallet, try some of these sites for free bitcoins:
Bitvisitor.com - visit sites for 5 minutes for an adverse of 8.8 uBTC
Earnfreebitcoins.com 26 uBTC per 3 minutes? Some please verify
Dailybitcons.org - every hour.
coinreaper.com - one stop for I think 8 sites
Coinurl.com -bitcoins for shrinking urls
[Will add more]
Mining:Everyone wants to know how to do this because free cash! But what if you don't have a super computer?!?
If you have a basic computer(like most of us) I recommend joining
http://mining.bitcoin.cz There, you will be able to mine bitcoins(generate bitcoins and validate transactions) as a group, and all the profits will be shared based on the amount of work each worker did. My personal choice is RPCMiner(OSX)[
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/RPC_Miner] but I've also heard of DiabloMiner.
If you don't want to download anything to you computer, but have java, the best place to go is
http://bitcoinplus.com. Here you generate something like 0.0000036
BTC per .58 hour(based on my computer). You can even have this site running on multiple computer to increase payout!
As more things come out, I will be updating this! Don't be afraid to correct me if something changes or new comes out!
