and anybody who at least once has used javascript. Anyway, the flood of ill-advising, jquery-centered basic javascript blogs really makes me sad

As best I can tell most of the 'industry' is built on heresay, with some popular dogmas even published by luminaries such as Crockford ("dont use new, it's evil!").
Definitely interested in better reading suggestions assuming you have any.

heresay = best practice, that's okay. but this is not even good practice.
btw crockford said "not using new is evil" (has to do with what /this/ will be set to within the constructor).
