My first credit card

[A Casual Fitz]

I'm a college student and I've decided that it's time for me to start building my credit...but with so many companies offering rewarding credit cards (Amazon, Ebay, Sony) it's hard to figure out which one will actually be the best for me. Though I don't necessarily need to find the one with the best rewards, just a good one to get started. Can anyone tell me what I should look for in terms of good APR or restrictions and whatever else?

You're not likely to get a "deal" on your first credit card. Just find someone (like your bank or credit union) that will give you one, preferably unsecured.
