If you’re doing old school drawn on paper frame by frame stuff or stop-motion or 2D, I’d suggest MonkeyJam. It’s free.

If you’re on a Mac, use Pencil.

If you want to do Flash animation like the stuff on Newgrounds.com, either use Adobe Flash or Synfig, which is free.

Here are some online resources about the basic principles of animation.
