Welcome to Eve! It looks like you're getting the basics down pretty good. Though Eve can be done solo, it shines via multi-player. You just need to get out there and meet folks. I recommend either joining a corp or forming a corp and recruit others. Keep in mind that betrayal is a part of the game culture, so keep your eyes open. Eve has a huge range, from being a solo miner to huge fleet battle participation. Have fun out there.
