YUI Theater

If you're interested in learning Javascript, one of the resources I've been absorbing a lot of lately is the collection of videos at YUI Theater. There are a lot of clips of Douglas Crockford speaking, and he has a good collection of beginner and advanced javascript lectures on there. Here's some of the things I've gone through or will be going through and are recommended:

• The Javascript Programming Language (Basics) [slides]
• Part 1 (31 mins)
• Part 2 (31 mins)
• Part 3 (29 mins)
• Part 4 (20 mins)
• An Inconvenient API: Theory of the DOM [slides]
• Part 1 (31 mins)
• Part 2 (21 mins)
• Part 3 (26 mins)
• Advanced Javascript [slides]
• Part 1 (31 mins)
• Part 2 (25 mins)
• Part 3 (11 mins)

The basics are a great intro for someone who learns quickly or already has a really basic idea on what a programming language is and basic tenants like variables, functions, objects, etc. The DOM series goes over browsers and how they parse an HTML file, and the impact that has on your scripts. The advanced one (which I'm currently watching) goes over some more in depth techniques like inheritance. For more stuff, check out the full listing!
