Very new to electronics... Any advice?

[Lotophage]

Hey everybody. I'm just starting to get into tinkering with electronics (in fact, this is my very first post here) and I need to know where I can start.

You should know I'm very fond of "toys" and I really want to eventually be making little gadgets from various different parts... Currently the most I've ever done was make a stun glove.

I had a lot of fun making it, and it's cool knowing it's my very own creation, I want to start doing more in that (field) and I'm wondering if this is the right place for that kind of stuff. If I can get any websites, links, tips, ect. that'd be prime. Thanks.

You should look at Nerd Kits, I really liked there micro controller kit it came with every thing from basic stuff to a LCD temperature sensor and its a fairly reasonable price.
