AppDev's online courses are pretty good.
For around 1000 USD, you can have a lots of excellent courses on different subjects: http://www.appdev.com/
PS: I don't work for them, but I'm an happy customer.
Start at the SQL Server 2008 training portal, here.
You can check the next links:

And this is a good basic tutorial for SQL instructions.

Anyone have any recommendations on a good book to improve my T-SQL kung fu? I have been looking Joe at some of Joe Celko's books, but are there better ones out there? I need to develop a better understanding of JOINS and some of the other more advanced topics. I appreciate any recommendations.
I recommend SQL Server 2008 for Developers. Great book you can a lot of advanced topics from. A must read for db developers.
You can find the book here. The authors are Joel Murach and Bryan Syverson.

This can be community wiki.
I'm looking for a simple, multi-platform, free database browser (ODBC,etc). This is for those times when I want to interface with a database, and just need a simple way to quickly see what the heck is in it. Doesn't need to support any vendor-specific features.
Too much junk out there and I don't want to play with these things all day. What do you use?
I like SqlDbx - the personal edition is free. It supports most of the major databases, and the built in intellisense is useful for queries.
Dbvisualizer has a free version http://www.dbvis.com/products/dbvis/download/

Okie, I've searched it in SO and I've not found it. Can someone tell me a good open source query builder tool for working with Microsoft SQL Server databases?
DBVisualizer will do the trick. It's Opensource and can be configured to use with almost any DBMS.
DBVisualizer
DBVisualizer Query Builder
What about Management Studio? But, it is not open source.

I found that page: http://erikej.blogspot.com/2009/04/sql-compact-3rd-party-tools.html
There are a lot of tools but it is not clear which one will do the job right, so any help?
Export2SqlCe.exe will "do the job right" (I am the developer, so please let me know if that is not the case) - Usage guide here:
