Quite surprised you responded to this, your efforts have been a great help in my learning haha! It would really nice to have structured quizzes one can complete though. Since my first post here I found an IBM one, but it's more of a "Correct this code then answer this true/false question and then you're finished with the quiz" type thing. Also, I wouldn't really trust IBM quizzes on Node.js after I read a response article to an IBM blog post on the subject... I'm sure you'll know of the one I'm speaking of. So, here's a goal for you devs with free time... structure your knowledge in a quiz! :) It'll be of so much help.
