    http://focuslabllc.com/blog/the-abcs-of-ee-add-on-development looks to be the start of a good series. From my perspective, especially right after EE2 was released, the best option for me was to look at existing addons and then dive in with a simple plugin from scratch. Of course there are some good starting examples at http://ellislab.com/expressionengine/user-guide/development/index.html to help you kick things off. Wish there was more out there, would love to hear from someone else if there is.
