Here's the start of my journey into Dynamics CRM 4.0.

Blogs and Community

• A Freky Microsoft Dynamics CRM blog (previously hosted at MSDN, now moved to i's own server)
• Janne Matilla's Blog - mostly Sharepoint and CRM from a developer's point of view
• Dynamics CRM blog from polish BI team
• Microsoft Dynamics CRM team blog on MSDN
• Stunware's CRM blog - Contributed by Seth Kircher; CRM blog that looks like CRM 3.0
• Unitek Microsoft CRM team blog
• David Yack's blog - He blogs about all things App Dev, but there's quite a few posts about CRM.  Dave's also put a book together on building applications on top of Dyanmics CRM.
• A more complete list of blogs is available here.

Video demos and Install bits

• Developer Ramp Up kit for Dynamics CRM 4.0 - Basically this 12 module series is for those familiar with C#, .Net 2.0+ and ASP.Net and want to learn the ins and outs of CRM customizations.
• Dynamics 4.0 SDK - If you don't have this and are doing any CRM 4.0 development, get it!
• Dynamics 4.0 Virtual Machine - Full evaluation copy with data for CRM 4.0.  Great for demos or proof of concept work.  Expires April 2009.

Tools and must-haves

• Dynamics CRM JScript Export Tool
• Dynamics 4.0 Performance Toolkit - To perform load testing on CRM 4.0 installations
• The Stunware Tools for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0

I'll be focusing on posting tips, tricks and links to CRM resources on this blog for many of my future posts.  I hope you all enjoy!
