Body
More than anything, I'd start by building something (a website, an application, etc.) using open source software. If you keep at it, you will inevitably run into issues that warrant fixing or otherwise contributing back. If you run across issues that are beyond your skill level, keep track of them for later, once you've built your skills. You can also look for projects that have a <a href="http://drupal.org/contribute" rel="noreferrer">contributor's guide</a>. <a href="http://ivanzuzak.info/2012/03/03/todos-ideas-for-contributing-to-open-source-projects.html" rel="noreferrer">Look for <code>@todo</code> comments in the source code</a>, for pointers to issues you may be able to resolve. Check out the sites for the <a href="https://code.google.com/soc/" rel="noreferrer">Google Summer of Code</a> and <a href="https://www.google-melange.com/gci/homepage/google/gci2012" rel="noreferrer">Google Code-In</a>. There are lots of publicly available proposals for those programs that may provide some inspiration. The open source projects that participate have to apply, so they're definitely projects that are open to new participants. Look for <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:IRC/Tutorial" rel="noreferrer">IRC channels</a> dedicated to your favorite projects and try to help other users there. Ask in the channel who needs help on their project. The <a href="http://twit.tv/show/floss-weekly" rel="noreferrer">FLOSS Weekly podcast</a> highlights different open source projects each week and they regularly ask guests where their projects need help.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
