Guilty. Any recommendations for learning?

edit: I have the rhino book. I meant, learning alternatives to organizing my code as a series of jQuery event bindings.

Yehuda Katz has a nice article on the prototype system that I generally point people to.

And the JavaScript Patterns book is a good read to get an overview of what can be done with just JavaScript. If your application is even remotely complex you'll probably end up using something like backbone or sproutcore which provide constructs for organizing your code anyway.

Douglas Crockford is the best JS teacher I've come across.

This video series is excellent (and provides a bit of CS history) http://yuiblog.com/crockford/

Also his book, Javascript: The Good Parts

My favorite is 'JavaScript Patterns' (http://www.amazon.com/JavaScript-Patterns-Stoyan-Stefanov/dp...).
