Check out jQuery Enlightenment!
jQuery team member Cody Lindley has published the jQuery Enlightenment book, and if you haven’t checked it out yet, you’ll definitely want to. “Each chapter contains concepts essential to becoming a seasoned jQuery developer,”‘” so even if you’ve already got your copy, pick one up for a friend who’s just learning! Even better, a percentage of all sales goes directly back to the jQuery project and helps fund future releases and projects. A big thank you to Cody for his generous donation for the 14 Days of jQuery campaign!
Cool.

14 Days of jQuery: Day 14
* jQuery 1.4.1 ? :)
Seriously though, could you set a date for 1.4.1? Adds some confidence for developers to start using 1.4 now..
Anyone having problems with the video? I get voice but no video on the 14 days flowplayers. The demos on flowplayer work fine. I tried different browsers. ??
