Riding Clipless?

I've been building up a bike to make into a fixie (loctite cheapo method), and I got a great deal on the bike I'm converting - the guy threw in clipless pedals and a bunch of other stuff. I was going to wait for a while to put them on (I've never ridden clipless, NOR fixed!), but it turns out that our exchange student left a pair of Shimano clipless shoes here when he moved home - and they fit me perfectly! Should I try the clipless pedals out on my regular road bike or just throw myself into it with the fixie? I know riding fixed with clipless pedals makes things easier... but I should probably just get some pedal clips first, huh?

Also, any pro tips for learning to ride clipless, whatever way I go?
