Starting My Cocoa Education

Since I’ve switched to the Mac as my main work machine, I’ve been keenly interested in developing oXcode iconn  that platform.  There have been a couple of tools I really want to build but I have no idea how to even start programming on this platform.  I figure that I might as well blog about my learning experience as well.
