Also, make sure you work on stretching the skin very well. It'll help prevent rashes and nicks and get you a closer shave easier. Another thing which comes to mind is careful and gentle stropping both before and after your shave. No matter how sharp the edge, improper stropping can make the shave a less pleasant experience.

My only other advise would be what we tell everybody new: read ALL the help files, visit the links, don't be afraid to ask ANYTHING, and drop by for a Sunday chat whenever you can.
