It’s been some time since I wrote the post on “how to learn SharePoint” so was wondering if there are any more approaches that you use to learn SharePoint? What methods do you prefer ? Books, on-line training, conferences, hands-on, pairing up? Let’s hear you learning techniques …
I tend to drown myself in information. I like to pull resources in from Books, Videos, Web, Twitter anywhere I can really. Then start to pick away at it one piece at a time until I’ve got it clear.  Once I’m at that point then I play with it demo demo demo, and yes another hello world app !Â
The SharePoint community is such a great place to find out different approaches and methods.
i start with a few YOUTUBE sharepoint videos and then get reading !
here’s a good list of Free downloadable books!

I prefer to start with some video trainings to have a “quickly” broad view and then use some books to acquire deeper knowledge, but the experience gained through my work is the best method for me.
I think microsoft virtual academy has lot of stuff to learn Sharepoint and also some referance books.

My personal preference – always start with Wrox’s Beginning SharePoint Development series and then move to Professional SharePoint Development one, helps a lot!
