There are a lot of good tutorials > available. Just use them. There's a large gap between where the tutorials leave off and the man pages pick up. I found nothing to fill that gap, in terms of background information regarding what is going on. There are a lot of specific questions answered on StackOverflow and such likes, but they provide cookbook-style solutions, which is very good for solving specific problems, but not if one wants to understand what's going on better. So once you are past the basic stuff, you have nowhere else to go to learn more, except from your own experience.
