motors 101

er since i'm practically new to this topic, can anybody give me a simple rundown on electric motors? can anybody point out a website that can help me out on this topic?

i've got a couple of questions as well...

what will less winds do? result in more torque or more speed?
how many ways can you wind an armature?
how do you balance the armature?
what's an axis?
what's a commutator?

given the same number of winds....
- what will a thicker gauge wire do?
- what will a stronder magnet do?

any other info would be helpful
