Well, I just got done skimming through the first two pages and it seems like all I can find are people trying to figure out how to start out. So I'm going to try and help out and post a couple guides that helped me out a lot, and quite frankly still use from time to time cause I for sure can't remember everything.
First off for skill training, I highly recommend training all learning skills to lvl3, then train cybernetics skill to lvl3, try and get some isk and buy the +3 basic implants for implant slots 1-5. This will make the rest of your training a bit faster, then as you get certain skills to where you want them to be, finish up your learning skills to lvl4 and then to lvl5 as soon as it is convenient. I've got +4 implants(which requires cybernetics to be at lvl4) and all learning skills to lvl5, and training skills doesn't take so long.
*The following guides are all about exploration and wormholes.

*These sites are for some possible ship fittings if you can't figure one out for yourself or don't really know how to fit a ship.

Has info on wormhole sites. Agent locator if you want to fly missions from a certain person (even though you can do that in game as well). A lot of info on that site
*For miners (bleh)

If you have any questions, comments, concerns feel free to post here or PM me. Would prefer to post here so in case your question is someone else's question I can knock out two birds with one stone.
If you have any guides to submit, I will edit post and add it.
Request sticky from mod, but hey, you don't have to if you really don't, but this can answer a lot of questions.
