The standard tuning for all guitars is EADGBe (E being the 6th, or lowest, string whilst e is the 1st or thinest string).

If you're tuned to this, then you're tuned the way most (or at least a significant number of) people play guitar.

That being said, there are many other ways you can tune a guitar (both acoustic and/or electric); some of these include DADGAD, DADGBe (or dropped D), open C, (which I can't remember the actually tuning for at the moment).

Have a browse around the site, sure there's been some lessons on tuning, but hopefully that's answered your question.

Check out the 'Listening Post' section, you'll be able to find some host-sites other people use, (as well as hearing some pretty nifty tracks), that's probably the best way to get your stuff on the internet.
Don't worry too much about me, ignore me long enough and I'll go away.
