I'd like to learn Clojure. Any suggestions on how to get started? It's my first time using a Lisp dialect. I figured I'd tackle the Clojure Koans, and mix in a few Project Euler problems.

I'd also like to do some code reading. I know the Clojure source code is on GitHub, but maybe something smaller to start?

If anyone else is interested in getting started, here are a few links I visited over the weekend:

http://www.braveclojure.com/do-things/

http://aphyr.com/tags/Clojure-from-the-ground-up

http://clojurekoans.com/

The last link is an hour-long interview with Rich Hickey - a fantastic introduction to the language and his design goals. It's probably the best technical video I've ever watched on YouTube.
