I too started mostly in live home games / card rooms, then made it to online and casinos.

Differences for the most part have been discussed. Counting the size of the pot is a main issue, and physical tells is the other.

I found by carefully paying attention to players, there are a lot of tells you can pick up if you are looking for them (different facial expressions, betting patterns, glancing at chips, reaching then checking, time taken to bet etc). I also find it easier to make generalizations about a player after sitting with them for a while when I can actually see them, rather than a circle with a picture.

The play is less loose live as well (generally) calling a large bet is harder than clicking call.
