New, Have some getting started questions, please help.

I am newly retired and want to travel. I need to rack up the FF miles fast. I am open to all ideas. I just discovered this forum last night and stayed up reading about 2 hours! I want to take advantage of the bonus miles given for getting the WP visa (as read here last night)expires tomorrow! I also read loud and clear that the Starwood Amex is the #1 card to have, so I want to sign up for that one. Doing a search on cards led me to the Gold Delta Skymiles Card, which sounded good. I read that United Plus Visa has a 15,000 sign on bonus, so that one sounds good!
1st question: How do I contact Starwood? Can't seem to find them with a search.
2nd question: I will want to be able to fly to all locations on the globe so I need to rack up miles for all airlines...right. So do I want to have a visa from all airlines?
3rd question: Are there any cards that require you to pay interest or can you pay in full each month and still reap the benifits of the miles.
Thanks to all of you for the info and help you give. I appreciate this site!
