I stumbled across this great article on MossAndStoneGardens.Com today.
First, do you know your Acrocarp from your Pleurocarp? Yeah, me either.
Also you should prepare the surface where you'll want the moss to grow, remembering "that moss will follow the small undulations that are normally not noticeable until a smooth carpet of green is hugging the ground."
Also moss grows wicked slowly, so get ready for a whole lot of nothing for a bit as it takes hold.
Read the full article here: How to Grow Moss.
It has tips on when and how to water moss, how to collect moss, and even a bunch of humorous images of a moss faery dude on a moss lawn. Now that's what I call mossome.

I am a moss enthusiast. Herein lie my moss photos, as well as some helpful links to others who love moss. We are not alone.

Awesome Moss on High Street Tree
Great moss outside Rudy's on High Street in Portsmouth!
Legend has it that this is why, when it rains especially long and hard, the sidewalks become treacherous right around here... tread carefully, Portsmouth!
