Once you start playing with the different basic features of PowerShell, you may need to start somewhere continue your journey. There are a number of resources out there on a number of topics that make it useful.
For video learners, I would first start with the Youtube videos by Don Jones called PowerShell in a Month of Lunches. I recommend anything by Don Jones as I absorb more from his presentation style. The Microsoft Virtual Academy has a number of videos including the PowerShell 3 Jumpstart which goes over a number of core concepts.
If books are more your thing, then the latest book of the same name PowerShell in a Month of Lunches is often recommended.I am just getting started on the latest edition myself.
And for Podcasts, the official podcast of PowerShell.org, the PowerScripting Podcast has a number of good episodes. The first few are more focused on getting you started. After that they become more focused on the people involved in PowerShell and the things they are doing with it. They are recording less frequently now but are still have a lot worth hearing. As for me, I also like the other technologies that come up.
Now go make the IT world a better place……or learn how to shut all your colleagues systems down all at once, whatever makes you happy.
