shifting guides...

My parents aren't much help and very few of my friends can drive a stick very well. Anyone got any links to good (safe) daily driving shift guides?

What specifically did you have in mind? In other words, what was it that you wanted to know? They'll all say the same thing... clutch, shift gear, gas... let go of clutch....
