Gaaaaa, didn't notice the PIC model.
Don't forget the current limitting resistor, most use 330ohms.
Side note: I learned basic electronics and PIC programming just by using google. Whenever I was faced with a new component, like a LED, I'd google LED TUTORIAL and found everything I needed to know (anode, cathode, current-limitting resistor, etc).
When I needed extra help, I'd ask on an Electronic 101 forum:
