The community is a tremendous
resource: IRC, Blog Aggregator,
django-users
http://www.djangoproject.com/community/
ProDjango by Marty Alchin is a good book for learning the django internals http://prodjango.com/
"Learning Python" by O'Reilly http://books.google.com/books?id=nEJ-jcYF2fMC&dq=learning+python&printsec=frontcover&source=bn&hl=en&ei=EBJhSoHvDs_tlAfDncmjDw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=4
"Dive into Python" http://diveintopython3.ep.io/ (opensource title) from Apress.
Videos of talks from DjangoCon or
Pycon can be streamed as well. And
the startthedark.com django from the
ground up series.

I also understand that "this week in
django" is being rebranded as
djangodose, yet still many of the
podcasts for twid are relevant.

The rubyonrails podcast is another
great resource. RoR podcast covers equally relevant topics of interest to both Django and Rails programmers.

Good blog post on deployment

Make sure to learn pip, virtualenv, and fabric while you are at it. Indispensable.
