Hi Dylan, welcome on-board.

There is a lot of good stuff on that site. Just begin by the "100+ Hypermiling Tips" then continue with the "60+ Efficiency Mods". Both can be found at top of all pages.

The more simple mods are to inflate your tires gradually and to build a front grill block. There is a lot of cardboard/coroplast examples on the site.
To improve your driving you can begin to drive without brakes and to coast in neutral as much as possible. Inflated tires will help a lot. This is a brand new experience

Have fun,

Denis.
