Where does one begin? I do see several beginner oriented topics. I created pages, stories, blocks, blogs, forums, etc., individually. I've been looking at views. Should one just go to views to create the previous items? I learn ways to accomplish things and then later discover something else. Drupal keeps moving forward and improving. What are the tools and techniques one should use today?
Can there be a Drupal only focus? I've seen and heard other such discussions but they always get compounded with PHP, CCK, CCS, Javascript...... Are there differences for Windows users?
I apologize if this is too similar to other suggestions but I do not know how many other beginners there are and if they provide input.
