there is an introduction video http://www.chess.com/site_demo_video.html
and  the help section.

You can use the tactics trainer (se emain menu top screen) to practice. It helps.

You can read articles. I like those of silman but others are also good.

Welcome to the site, chess mentor and the daily articles are a great resource for improving your strategy. Don't forget to analyze your games with a good engine too. You can also post your game in the forums to ask advice and opinions of us fellow users.

The LEARN, READ and FUN menus are a good starting point.

Also, there are quite a few GROUPS that specialise in sharing knowledge.

And, of course, as Dafydd demonstrated, you're sure to find an idiot or two as you go along. Just play your chess, have fun, and don't worry about 'em.

Read this thread: http://www.chess.com/forum/view/general/if-you-know

It will not only teach you about strategy and chess.com, but also philosophy, economics, relativistic mechanics and much more.
