I recently picked up A to Z GIS (published by ESRI). It walks through
hundreds (maybe thousands) of geo terms. Might be really handy if
you're diving in head first.

This is quite a broad request - have anything more specific in mind?
Here are a couple of additional resources:
"Geospatial Analysis" book by Smith, Goodchild, and Lengley - free in
HTML
http://www.spatialanalysisonline.com/
OSGeo GIS tutorials:
http://www.bostongis.com/TutBook.aspx
ArcGIS cookbook:
http://www.csiss.org/cookbook/
and of course - O'Reilly books
http://oreilly.com/catalog/neogeography
(look under related for great links to "GIS for Web Developers", and
"Web Mapping Illustrated" books)

Hello all,
I am new to the GIS field and wondering the best online resource
for learning about GIS (not wikipedia). I would like to learn how to
track myself with GPS devices, learn about the formats that data
saves in, and I suppose the bare basics of GIS. Any direction is
greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Damon
