I am trying to figure out what must be done to buy and use Bitcoins.
What is the procedure to get started and be safe.
I see a lot of information but nothing in the way of step by step things to do to begin using Bitcoins.
I hope someone can help me get started.
Thanks

Step 1. Choose a bitcoin wallet.

Step 2. Learn how to safely use that wallet (how to back it up, set a password, etc).

Step 3. Buy bitcoins (BitStamp, BTC-E, localbitcoins, or bitcointalk marketplace).
