I was dawdling aroundon my own for some time before I figured stuff out too. There's a very helpful link called 'help' at the very top. You should try browsing that sometime.
As for making a sticky post, when you're posting you see the date. You edit it, and tick the box that says 'post out of order'. Set the date to December 29th 2009.
People also use sticky posts for welcome posts where people introduce themselves(gives you the opportunity to use those shiny graphics/friends only banners. hehe), and also lists of what stories they've posted. Very handy :)
