So I'm getting pretty into the multiplayer of this game now, but not having ever played an RTS against other people before this I'm inevitably not very good. I'm having fun finding things out, and I have a basic idea of how a match should play out, but I'm looking for a good place to find some basic strats for all three races (as I can't decide on a main, I like them all too much). Standard builds, that kind of thing. I've seen links to Team Liquid on here and had a look, but I'm not familiar with all the jargon just yet and a lot of the discussion was about strategies I haven't learned yet. Anyone have any ideas?

While I'm at it, you mentioned Teamliquid, but another great resource is  http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Main_Page  It tells you BOs, and how to read them here:  http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Build_Order 
 
Jargon:  http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Definitions

Above advises are pretty good. Find really good replays and watch them for the build orders. Top players from Teamliquid is a good start. I like Idra for Zerg, White-Ra for protoss, and most TLO for terran. TLO sometimes plays random though. Its one thing to know the build orders, but seeing how they are executed is something else. osgSTC, i think is korean terran player and he is very very good. Like Brad said on the podcast, learn from the best.

What you really want to do is head over to Day9's casts.   http://day9tv.blip.tv/ 
 
He pauses the action and constantly explains everything in every cast he does.  It's the most informative anywhere.  In particular, you want to see this one.   http://day9tv.blip.tv/file/3732340/  This video covers the basics of every single SC2 match you will ever play.  Not in terms of unit counters, but just what you need to know that the game will not explain to you. 
 
http://day9tv.blip.tv/file/3991475/  Is a good one too.   "
