No, I'm a complete hack, but I consider myself a better-than-average Googler. I do submit snippets to forums occasionally and I've ported stuff to where no one as gone before; maybe 2010 will be the year of the daperl desktop. And although I'm formally trained in the computer sciences, I do as much begging, borrowing and stealing as I do reading API references and tutorials. The Maemo repositories are a gold mine: There's everything from "Hello World" to building your own kernel. I also highly recommend the PyGTK examples and demos. Next step, Qt...

I love tweaking code etc, but I'm just wondering, where do you start?
Good to hear. Would you mind telling me a little about your technical background and types of projects that interest you? In the meantime, here are some links:
