I believe this was posted earlier. For all the people asking about what they need for a fixed gear.

1. Frame w/horizontal dropouts (ideal)
2. Fork (if not already attached to the frame)
2a. Headset (if not already attached to the frame)
3. Bottom bracket (if not already attached to the frame)
4. Handle bars
5. Stem (comes in either threadless or threaded)
6. Seat Post
7. Seat
8. Crankset
9. Chainring
10. Chain
11. Rear fixed hub (whatever your heart desires) + Spokes + Rims + Tires
12. Rear cog + Lockring
13. Pedals + Cages + Straps
14. Brakes
15. Tools
16. Time

http://www.fixedgeargallery.com
http://sheldonbrown.com/fixed/index.html
http://www.bikeforums.net
http://www.roadbikereview.com

all those sites are super informative and have whole forums dedicated to fixed/ss.
