simple is best , so i'd start out with watchin this one .
http://www.cigarboxnation.com/video/knotlennys-3string-cbg-101
then search players lessons like mike snowden , and others on youtube ,, and of course the many players videos on this site , like shane speals tips and tricks and others .
when searching y-tube and this site .. adding the words "lesson " or "how to play " helps .
good luck . welcome to the addiction ;-)
