For books I recommend the Javascript Cookbook ( http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596806132/ ). It was released a few days ago and from the parts I've read so far, covers a lot of use cases for the language as well as lots of HTML 5 + ECMAscript 5 bits.

If you're interested in building something with a client-side js framework, you should check out this tutorial http://howtonode.org/express-mongodb . It covers how to build a simple blog app with node.js and express.

A node.js tutorial was also something that I was looking for, so thanks for that.

If you have any more ideas both for beginners and advanced, it would be great.

Be aware this node.js tutorial is working with the v0.14 of the express web framework but the 1.0 is in beta 2 right now with a lot of api changes.
