Hello all.
This is my first linux distro install besides Ubuntu (which was too easy for me to learn much) and I know that I should probably create another user besides root, but I don't really know what sort of permissions etc I should give myself.
I know the command is 'adduser' correct? But can anyone give me a quickie little walkthrough on how I should properly add myself as another user?

Have you checked the beginners guide on the wiki?
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners'_Guide#Step_4:_Add_a_user_and_setup_groups
the example they give is:
# useradd -m -G users,audio,lp,optical,storage,video,wheel,power -s /bin/bash archie
You can just add more groups as necessary with "gpasswd -a [user] [group]"

Adduser is interactive and fairly self explaining.
