Use of threads in C++

Question

Can you tell me how can I use threads in C++ programs, and how can I compile it as it will be multithreaded? Can you tell me some good site where I can start from root?

Thanks

I haven't used it myself, but I'm told that the Boost thread libraries make it incredibly easy.
