You might also want to check

http://packages.qa.debian.org/package-name

 From what I understand for all sense and purposes debian-testing and
 Squeeze are practically the same thing.

Yes, squeeze is 'testing' now. After the release squeeze will become 
'stable' and wheezy will be 'testing'.

 In Ubuntu they have a nice page where the newest packages within a

 all the way to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/amd64/+builds (my
 architecture :)) and know which packages were successfully built.
 
 Is there anyway to know the latest packages available within
 testing/Squeeze on some central location/webpage ?

Sort of :-}

https://buildd.debian.org/stats/

You can click on the desired status (building/uploaded/failed...) and 
arch (amd64) to get the data.

More stats can be retrieved from here:

 Hi all,
  Now this might come as a bit of I don't know what after that nice
 intro. I had tried to install Debian some 4-6 years back and due to it
 being so hard gave up. Then went to Ubuntu sometime and now back.

 This background info. is/was necessary as I might ask
 queries/questions coming from that background.

 While I can do $sudo apt-get update and get that info. I'm on a mirror
 and mirrors take time to get the files distributed. Also I don't want
 to put any load on the main server and happy downloading a little
 later but would like to know if there is a specific webpage where such
 details can be ascertained.
