How do you get to know the Dies of Brother thingy better? And how do you get the La Cosa Norta or whatever on your goodside?

You can only get one group (faction) to like you at a time, since Arcanum Brotherhood like you right now, You should go to church and talk to the Bishop.

No, that is not correct. You can get all 3 or 2 or 1 to get to like you. However, it is much easier to get 1 to like you.

The rest is correct.

but how do i get them to like me?

Do the "little job"

Ok you can have them all like you at once, but I'm pretty sure only one can like you alot. Enough for good prices and treasure hunts. However I am really tired right now and could well be delusional...

Not only do you have to do the little jobs, but you have to do them everyday. Your score will drop daily and the little jobs help to offset this.

Wire, go to sleep. :) You've earned the rest. It will all make sense tomorrow. :)

A lot of cases will tell you that for example:
Your standing with the Dies Arcanum Brotherhood will improve if you solve this case. The Order of the Socrates would like to see this matter go away.
If you read the extra story lines that come up while you're solving the case, you will see this. Also, after you've solved the case, in the screen where it tells you how much experience and money you got, it says if your standing with any of the factions has changed.

It is difficult to be very well liked by more than one faction, but if you pick and choose which cases you choose to solve or quit once finding out how faction will be affected, then you can be on any side you want.

ALSO
to be able to do the little job you have to be at least +1 in the faction

If you are in an Agency, you can get your teammates to trade you cases that will move you up in the faction you are trying to get in good with. We do this when an agent wants to change factions.

Once you are +1 or better, doing little favors is the fastest way to get better.

I know you can be good with two factions, but I've never heard of anyone being in good with all three at one time. Jojo? How would that work, since you go down with one when you go up with another.
