Hi! I have bought an atmega 328 with uno bootloader and also a shifter board kit. My question is how i can connect them to put sketchs with arduino IDE.I have use this site(http://www.jameco.com/Jameco/workshop/J ... rcuit.html) to put atmega on a breaboard but is there any way to use the shifter board(https://www.sparkfun.com/products/133) to run codes on atmega?

You mean to upload sketches? If so, I wouldn't buy that. The easier way is to use this, https://www.sparkfun.com/products/9716

Note - no matter how you look at it, you are going to need more components on the breadboard to program the ATmega chip.

Buy one of these and get on with it

SFE sells some but not all options in PJRC's products
Some of these are mega32 USB built-in; some are newer/better ARM Cortex M3 with gobs of memory/flash and a simpler single address space. Both have the Arduino libraries, even the ARM board.
