There are also some on the web on places like dev shed and phpbuilder.
PHPBuilder is a place where a lot of beginners go, especially MySQL
beginners using PHP. devshed is a little more advanced, but there's still
some good novice areas too.
My other recommendation would be to pick up a good SQL / Database theory
book. If you're getting a feel for SQL then try J Celcko's "SQL for
Smarties" and his other SQL books are pretty good too, and entertaining as
well.
And, if you just wanna read the archive of USENET past and such, you can
use groups.google.com, look for comp.databases.postgresql
