I'm making great progress learning magento. My questions is, how do I add extra fields to the /customer/account/create/ page? The fields I want to add are below. Can the fields I add also appear under:

1) Frontend: Customer is able to edit/change the added fields answers in their accounts area 2) Backend: Administrator is able to see and manage the added fields under customers/manage customers/ selected customer/ customer information.

Any help or pointers is immensely appreciated.

Here is a good but old tutorial how to add custom fields in registration page
http://www.fontis.com.au/blog/magento/custom-customer-signup-attributes

It was done for Magento 1.3 so you need to read comments below the article to make it works on Magento 1.7 or check out this answer on SO Can no longer add registration fields in Magento 1.4.2.0

Also there are few extensions on Magento connect for that purpose.
