Get any basic book, even if it's for juveniles.
Find a chess club or at least a couple people and work over-the-board with them and your basic book.

Play some unrated chess on this site. In fact, you challenge me to an unrated game and I'll give you a few tips. Also chess books, and the vote chess (be in a team) are both good ways to improve.

Play some live games, get the chess tactics trainer for $30 it's good for a whole year. Chess is mostly tactics, by doing tactic trainning it will improve your skills on the chess board. As far as which part of the game you should start with first you should start with the end game. Oh, weclome to chess.com hope to see you around.
