[Elecraft] Get the kids off the street - making my move!

After being CW only for over 2 decades, I've made the decision (now that I 
have a K3S/100) to move into digital comms.  It's time for me to experience 
a 1st contact in a new mode - been a really long time.

For software, I've got DXLab for logging (WW included, of course), FLDIGI, 
DigiPan, MMTY, JT65-HF, WSPR, LP Bridge and a very messy desktop!

Audio is being handled via USB and I can do additional routing (if 
necessary) with a virtual mixer.

I do have Fred Cady's book on the K3S, ARRL's Get on the Air with HF Digital 
and HF Digital Handbook.

1st question - are there any other resources I should look at or am I 
already overloaded?
2nd question - web sites, youtube, etc. - what are (IYHO) the better 
resources?

With such a great rig, I realized I was wasting part of my investment by not 
utilizing it more fully.  That said, I'm planning on attacking many of the 
modes until I settle in on one or two.

I've got some time off work now (recouping after some surgery) so I'll have 
some time to enjoy discovering more about the rig.
