Expand Extra Resources with JavaScript links

[whastings]

Some students have expressed that they feel exposure to JavaScript before the course would have helped them. What do you all think about adding some links to JS resources to the Extra Resources page so motivated new students can do some extra studying? I can definitely come up with some good resources that helped me prepare.
