pSo much is going on all the time with Magento that it's easy to lose track of what new content is available in the Magento world and where to find it. I'll be posting semi-regularly to help flag new and interesting content for you. Our big initiatives over the last couple of weeks have been to update and refresh the Knowledge Base and to kick off our new Summer Webinar Series, so let's start there.

pWe've updated and refreshed the Magento Knowledge Base and are consolidating all of our Magento knowledge sources into it to make it the hub for all your Magento knowledge seeking.
pWe have some great articles to christen the new Knowledge Base. Alan Storm has written a nine-part "Magento for Developers" series to help introduce PHP developers to Magento's architecture and approach to customizing and extending Magento. You can check out the first three installments in Alan's series:

pWe've also kicked off our first-ever series of training webinars as our Summer Webinar Series. These are getting started webinars designed to help new users get up to speed with Magento more quickly. These have generated a huge amount of interest and we're really excited about this program and how we can continue to build it out going forward. If you haven't already signed up, there are plenty of sessions still to come.
pRecordings of this week's sessions are available at:
