I guess now I'm starting my first entry. So, um, the difference in which to use is simple. Who, or whom?
Whom was used commonly in the old English language but over time "who" has come to be the most common term. Whom can still be used to make your words sounds intelligent and it'll get more attention to whatever you're saying.

Learning the difference between who and whom is simple. It's all about determiners. You know. Her, him, she, he. I'll give an example of a question. "Does anyone know whom I should talk to about this assignment?" And someone could reply with "go talk to him."

Whom would be used with her and him determiners, while who would be used with she and he.

When the answer would involve using her and him, use whom. When the answer would involve using he and she, use who. Simple!
