How to get into Backbone.js

Backbone.js is basically an uber-light framework that allows you to structure your Javascript code in anMVC(Model, View, Controller) fashion where...

Model is part of your code that retrieves and populates the data,

View is the HTML representation of this model(views change as models change, etc)

and Controller that in this case allows you to save the state of your javascript application via a hashbang url, for example: http://twitter.com/#search?q=backbone.js

as quoted by Vladimir Gurovich @ stackoverflow.com

I always wanted to delve into those increasingly popular Javascript libraries, particularly node.js and backbone.js.  This post serves as a shortcut to relevant sources which I find helpful in getting better understanding on backbone.js.  I shall update from time to time if I found any good tutorials.
