How does Chain Strike work?
This is what the card description says:
Activate only as Chain Link 2 or higher; inflict 400 damage to your opponent times the Chain Link number of this card. You cannot activate this card if multiple cards/effects with the same name are in that Chain.
What exactly is a Chain Link and how does it work? What is the best way to use this card?

I would suggest just Googling "Yugioh Wikia Chain" and read their article on it. If you have any other questions after that, feel free to ask.
Additional Comment:
A few key points though:
I activate a spell card. After that, you activate Magic Jammer to negate my spell card. This is a chain. In this case, Magic Jammer is Chain Link 2, because it activated second, and my spell card is chain link 1. The chain will resolve in reverse order, so Magic Jammer resolves first, which negates my spell, and my spell can't resolve, so the chain ends there. In this same scenario, if I activated a spell card, then you chained Magic Jammer, you could then chain your "Chain Strike" to the Magic Jammer, making it chain link 3. So, resolving backwards, Chain Strike is Chain Link 3, which inflicts 1200 damage to me, then your Magic Jammer negates my spell, then my spell is unable to resolve, and the chain ends.
*Note: Magic Jammer has a cost to activate it's effect, so you must discard 1 card once you activate it, you do not wait for it to resolve to discard.

Since when could you chain, 'Chain Strike', to Magic Jammer, a spell speed 3.

No, of course.
Spell Speed 2 CANNOT chain to Spell Speed 3.

The only reason I never tried out the Chain Cards was that last line. I could not figure out how it worked:
You cannot activate this card if multiple cards/effects with the same name are in that Chain.
Does this mean that if I activate Jar of Greed, then activate Legacy of Yata Garasu, then activate Chain Burn, then activate Chain Burn, everything goes through or do the "Draw 1 Card" effects count as the effect part or do the "Chain Burn" count as the same name?
I think it is time I got my head wrapped around this puzzle to me so I can use my Miraculous Rebirth correctly IME. Thanks for all and any help.
End Phase. Your Move.

Actually, the multiple effect restriction does let you use 2 of a Chain card, as long as no other cards in the Chain are the same.
This means you can do something like:
Activate Secret Barrel
Chain Just Desserts
Chain Ojama Trio
Chain Chain Strike
Chain second Chain Strike
because when the second Chain Strike is activated, there was only one of each card used in the Chain up to that point. It then resolves as follows:
Chain Link 5: Chain Strike, inflicts 2000 damage
Chain Link 4: Chain Strike, inflicts 1600 damage
Chain Link 3: Ojama Trio, summons 3 Ojama Tokens
Chain Link 2: Just Desserts, inflicts 500 for each monster your opponent controls (so at least 1500)
Chain Link 1: Secret Barrel, inflicts 200 for each card in your opponent's hand/side of the field (so at least 600)
However, you can only activate 2, and you also won't be able to activate any other Chain cards (as in Chain Strike, Accumulated Fortune. You can still Chain other S/Ts.

Take a look for yourself.
Granted, Mystical Wind Typhoon is used as an example, but it's the same principle. |

Sooooo.... the Multiple implies towards other Chain cards that have the text
You cannot activate this card if multiple cards/effects with the same name are in that Chain.
I could activate 3 Reckless Greed along with 2 Accumulated Fortunes? OR
I could activate 2 MST along with 2 Mystical Wind Typhoons?
Thanks again

Nope, the multiple restriction is for any card. So if you want you could go, say, MST, Double Cyclone, Wind Typhoon, Wind Typhoon.
You can, however, activate a second card of the same name afterwards. Something like:
Link 1: Opponent's Ryko's effect
Link 2: Jar of Greed
Link 3: Reckless Greed
Link 4: Accumulated Fortune
Link 5: Accumulated Fortune
Link 6: Reckless Greed
