http://perl.plover.org - MJD's Perl Lover website. If you don't
know who MJD is, then pop on over to the site: it's about time
you learned. The ``Programming Red Flags'' series, ``Suffering
from Buffering'' article, and ``Coping with Scoping'' are all
excellent things to read.

http://www.perlmonks.org - I'm suprised I forgot this before.
Ask questions, get answers; troll the archives; learn from the
masters. Categorized Q&A is a fun place to fish around for things
which you've wondered but haven't asked.

http://www.yetanother.org/damian/ - the Conway Channel. Find out
what Damian has been up to, and where he's going next. This guy
is *intensely* respected in the Perl community; to find out how
much so, read http://www.yetanother.org/damian/about.html
