Definitely follow dw_news and dw_maintenance, so you can keep up with the goings-on of the site. The official news posts always share what's going on in very clear, easy-to-understand ways, and the maintenance posts can keep you up to date with any problems the site may be having.
Something fun you can do is upload a lot of different icons/user pics, and add specific, fun keywords to each. When you hover your mouse over another person's icon, the keywords they used to select it will become visible, adding a potential extra layer of communication!
Other than that, just ask questions! Most of the people here are eager to help out, because we love Dreamwidth and want to make using it easy for other people.
