You need a Metro Pass. You swipe the card when getting on the bus. $10 for a card with each trip about $1.50. And it's useful to look at a bus map to see which numbers & line go where you want to go. Frequency varies by line and by time of day, but they are listed on the poles at bus stops (a little funky to figure out the first time).

Subways are also a good choice, and less subject to traffic congestion. Again, get a bus/subway map if you can. Depending on where you enter the system, one can be better than the other. If you come in by train, the subways are often a better bet.
