OK, so I've had my new ukulele for just under two weeks and I'm learning a lot from this forum, YouTube videos, and of course trial and error.
My first few discoveries:
1. An electronic tuner is worth the money because when the chords you play sound like the ones in the instructional videos the feeling is addictive
2. It helps to be able to keep a beat
3. Virtuoso performances notwithstanding, a lot of songs seem to use the same 4 or 5 chords
4. It is actually easy to fit ukulele chords around song lyrics
More discoveries to follow...
My first songs:
1. Opening theme from "Adventure Time"
2. Strum Pattern (still working on picking pattern) from "Wagon Wheel" (from a video on this site)
3. "Closing Time" intro
