According to the directions on the Motley Fool site, the way to get started:
The best place to begin would be their 13 Steps to Investing
Foolishly, where they detail their investment approach. Then they
say to move on to their series of articles about How To Value
Stocks, as well as other helpful personal finance information
contained in the Fool's
School. Then they recommend that you explore the Dow Dividend
Approach, "a painless way to buy blue-chip stocks that has beaten the
market for at least 36 years running."

HEROES
Online retailer Cyberian Outpost (Nasdaq: COOL), which refers to itself as
"The Cool Place to Shop for Computer Stuff," tacked on a cool $10 5/8, or
73.9%, to $25 after the ShopperConnection "online mall" of specialty
retailers had its grand opening today. Fellow mall tenants rose on the
news as well, with online music seller CDnow (Nasdaq: CDNW) gaining $1
5/16 to $13 1/2 and Web-based travel services provider Preview Travel
(Nasdaq: PTVL) adding $2 1/16 to $17 3/16. Rounding out the shopping
network are privately held firms Datek Online, eToys, Garden.com, PC
Flowers & Gifts, Virtual Vineyards, and Hollywood Entertainment's (Nasdaq:
HLYW) Reel.com unit. The network, which was originally formed in October
with only four members, is being launched just before Black Friday and the
unofficial start of the holiday selling season stampede. The partners are
hoping the new site will be the Grinch that steals online Christmas sales
from multi-faceted retailer Amazon.com (Nasdaq: AMZN), which for its own
part, closed up $37 3/8 at $218 today.
