ISO, Shutter speed, aperture and other stuff. What sights do a good job of explaining this stuff? Like when to use what. I kinda understand what each one is, put really no idea how to apply the knowledge.

Other than that, once you've mastered the basics its pretty much a case of practicing, and finding photographs you like, trying to figure out how they were achieved and then attempt to emulate them (getting a plugin for your internet browser that allows you to examine EXIF data of images is very useful for this).
