My recommendation would be to start out with AppleScript Studio. It
will get you into programming with a user interface pretty quickly
without requiring you to deal with many of the harder topics too soon.
At the same time ASStudio gets you used to the power offered in Cocoa
programming (both ProjectBuilder and InterfaceBuilder), and as you feel
more confident you can start to integrate Obj-C code into your
projects, one step at a time (for example to speed up some sections).
I will say that a small database application will put you smack dab
into the more difficult parts of the user interface code (it is well
written stuff... just a little steep on the first couple of steps). For
starting out with AppleScript Studio there are some great guides
written by apple (look in the Developer:Documentation folder on you
HD), some nice tutorials, and a few great lists.
If you want to go whole hog on Obj-C, then I would recommend the
Vermont Recipes site, "The C Programming Language" by Kernighan and
Ritchie, and a few reads through the Obj-C stuff in the included
documentation on your HD...

collections since I have not seen any that I have liked. Being an
artist I would like to work the interface the most . I'm not looking
to catalog the human genome or anything ;-) Just a small tool to try
out for fun. To all of you pro and amateur developers, what is the
best way to get started? The most I have ever done in the way of
writing code is HTML and using unix scripts.
