What advice would you give to a friend who is thinking of joining a dating site (i.e. site(s) to join, tips, things to avoid, etc)?

I don't think there's really things to avoid per se, are there? I mean some people are just going to be crazy whether you met them online or not. You just have to be clever enough to spot them.
Just be patient. If you're a girl, you're going to get tons of creepy messages that you'll have to sort through. For guys, you won't get inundated with messages.
Don't mention that thing you like to do with the peanut butter right away. Wait until you get 'em in a movie theater or dark alley. I've found that visual aids facilitate.
I disagree with Sean. If you have an amazing talent with peanut butter or an amazing talent involving ping-pong balls or a banana, I would include that.
I guess the point is to be yourself and don't make this the end-all and be-all of dating. Take it casually and see what's out there. There will be some sketchy people you have to have coffee with to find your match.

Also, use OKCupid

Make sure you're ready to do it. I did it when I wasn't ready and it blew.
don't obsess over your profile so much that you never actually join (you know who you are)
