Really I found the best way to learn scripting is to pick up a good book to learn the basics in a structured way Plus playing around a lot Scripting Your World (the official guide to second life scripting) is an excellent learning resource and reference Creating Your World (another book in the same series) also contains very good tutorials as well as building etc I would get one or the other of these. They are a bit out of date but very good. Obviously you can look through other peoples scripts and try to pick them apart but there's nothing like writing a script yourself from scratch. And of course the wikis http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LSL_Portal are a constant companion throughout your scripting SL.
