Perferrably NASDAQ ones. Do you have to go through your bank, or can you do it nline, or neither? I dont know much about stocks, but want to get involved a little, so whats the best way to learn about them? Is it as complicated as it seems? Any help would be great, as you can tell, I dont know much about the topic. Thanks.

You can use an online broker like Scottrade, Ameritrade, something of that sort. Your bank might have a investing branch. I go through my bank, so maybe. I really learned a lot from http://investopedia.com. Also, watching CNBC helped me as well. Read a lot of books.

That's an overview of different online brokers.

I use Scottrade, $7 anytime trades, unlike sharebuilder which only allows you to invest once a week. Scottrade is like me, fast, easy and cheap!

You will have to sign up to a broker, but there are plenty of online ones that have reasonable fees - esp if you are based in the US.

I use sharebuilder.com
$4.00 trades, money market pools are awesome on the returns. Build college funds, 401K's etc.
Good Luck!
