ive been visiting free btc sites, reading ads, watching videos
finally managed to scrape together a whopping 0.01 btc
what do i do with my accumulated btc to get to the next level
?

@Hydrogen,
Konichua and panda1 are right. If you mine for coins you will be able to collect more, and the best way to do this is registering in a mining pool.
There are several to choose from. You can start from here:

Mining at a rate of 20 Mhash/s in about 24 hours you will be able to get around 0.01 BTC.
If you have a better graphic card you will be able to collect more!
I wish good luck, and good mining!
