I often recommend that new people check out Perl Monks. It's a great resource, no matter what level of Perl programmer you are. If you are looking for projects and such, we have covered quite a few over time. The slides for each are on the Houston.pm website under http://houston.pm.org/talks/ There's also a set of talks that I did on Perl Tips and Traps a few years back. It doesn't cover the latest Perls. But those talks should still be helpful. G. Wade > Kevin -- You write code as if the person who will maintain your code is a violent psychopath who knows where you live. -- John F.
