Should i get this programmer?

Hi,
i'm a total newbie to electronics and pic programming. I want to get my first pic programmer. Should i get **broken link removed** or there's a better option for me?
And what else do i need to get started and building circuits with programmed pic controllers? Do i need a breadboard or smting similar to build the circuit itself? Which one should i get and from where?

Thanks a lot!
