Dave (Blendedplanet.com) has posted some classic Blender articles from the now defunct 3D artist up at Blendedplanet. Its quite a blast from the past.
The articles include a blender quickstart, volumetric effects, particles, lens flare, radiosity and the old displacement.
Its a great way to see how far Blender has progressed over the years or just to get familiar with some of the legacy tools that still exist in Blender.
The articles can be found here.
