I've been following this guy's (Jarek Rek) blogs over on Blogspot and find them to be an amazing resource for learning Cisco networking.
If you're a beginner, start with his blog Cisco Is Easy
If you've already got some skills, you can follow his journal as he brushes up on CCIE R&S at Hacking Cisco
He'll get you started with running your own Cisco emulator, explaining how to get it up and running in no time. There are tons of visuals and easy to understand explanations. Go check it out!
Check his profile and you'll find a couple more of his blogs, Cisco Notepad and Ubuntu Garage.
