MySQL Memory Considerations

I am pretty new to MySQL and a server with 8GB of RAM. I figure I should do some high level tuning of the memory, but I don't really know where to begin. I poked around the internet but didn't find anything that was presented really well. Does any one have a source that they would highly recommend?

Thanks.

After your server has been running under normal load, the Perl script at http://mysqltuner.pl/ does a nice job looking at your statistics and figuring out what changes would be recommended. But at @Michael commented, prematurely adjusting your parameters is largely a crapshoot until you actually know where your bottlenecks are.
