I have been seriously weight training for around a year now and I'm quite satisfied with my gains.
But what has really changed is my knowledge of fitness and strength and all that surrounds it.
Looking back at a couple of comments I posted a few months ago and I am cringing at my then inexperience but also am proud at how far I have come.

The Internet is obviously such an amazing resource and you can find an answer to almost anything strength related on websites such as bodybuilding.com or TNation.
Yet the greatest insight I can credit is a guy named Elliot Hulse and his YouTube channel, "strengthcamp".

He holds an astonishing amount of knowledge but just as crucially has all the experience, highs and lows, mistakes and turning points.

There are more popular YouTube fitness channels such as "twinmuscleworkout" or "sixpackshortcuts" but they don't even compare. Elliot's teaches way beyond the gym and reminds me what I am trying to do.

This is a serious recommend as is his free PDF book, "The 4 Layers of Strength."
You won't regret it.

Any other YouTube recommendations?

I agree on Elliot Hulse. He has a good channel for beginners. He does occassionally give some bro-science but overall provides sound information.
I find the Hodge Twins pretty tiresome. They spend more time clowning around then giving information and some of what they do give out is questionable.

Bodybuilding.com has some good articles on training and diet but much of it is recycled. The forums though are mainly full of teenagers that idolize Zyzz.

T-Nation used to have some great training articles. However, it now just seems to be totally affiliated with the supplement company "Bio-Test". Some of the articles there now are so ridiculous its almost laughable. Many of the writers/posters (like Christian Thibaudeau) are very quick to deny their steriod usage yet never forget to tell everyone how important Mag-10 or Indigo 3G (or whatever the latest Bio-Test product is out) is to their training and recovery.

Worst articles are the ones who show themselves lifting what they think are heavy weights in usually awful form and then put "Warmup" set on it.....

Why would anybody post the warm up and not the heavy working set..

A favorite of mine, just good basic, simple, idiot proof old school training that works! Just a pity I don't have access to a 400m track and a truck tire!
