A few weeks back I committed code to Bitbucket, but didn't specify a commit message.  Git dropped my into vim.  I was lost and had to start looking up commands.  This was the catalyst for me to learn vim.  Here's what I tried:

vim adventures
interactive vim tutorial
beautiful vim cheat sheet

I even went so far as to print out two copies of the cheat sheet -- A3 and Letter sizes -- and get them laminated at Kinkos.  They are a good reference and the A3 size looks awesome on my desk.

In the last week I came across shortcutFoo.  They teach you shortcuts for a bunch of editors (vim, emacs, intelliJ) using interval training.  I am actually really learning the shortcuts.  I was so happy with my progress with the vim tutorial, that I added command line and git training.
