I like E*TRADE. They’re easy to use and have a wealth of knowledge available. As far as individual stocks it all depends on your end goals, if you’re willing to take risk look at CAPR and BA
Robinhood is the app/broker I'd start with. They don't charge commissions for trades. I use Google Finance and Yahoo Finance for looking up company/stock stats and financial news. I'd start with trading company's or industries you're familiar with or interested in.
Use Robinhood to start, then set up an account at a larger bank or brokerage like Fidelity or Merrill once you get more interested in ETFs or OTC market companies.
Diversify and always stay a little liquid for a rainy day (15-25%), and most importantly don't listen to anyone on the internet that says they have the complete answer to how to invest your money. No one does.
I'm rather interested myself, looking into Robin hood, as well as looking into investment news like people here have suggested, let's hope something comes of it!

Just buy index funds. There's no real way to easy money. Time in market is better than timing the market.
Be careful with any of these "free" trading sites. It's easy to lose a ton of money just because you think you're saving on the trades!
Be careful with Robinhood, you can’t trade pre-market (before 9am EST). Also if you are starting small and you are looking at penny stocks, Robinhood doesn’t have a lot of penny stocks. Got with a big broker (I.e. E-Trade, TD Ameritrade, Charles Schwab)
