If you ever thought, that you know C++ in complete, try to figure out, how one can have a lambda calculus, named parameters and static assertions in ISO C++.

For me the boost guys are magicians...

IMO the definit C++ Reference Guide out there is this one.

Especially check out the outlook on the upcoming C++0x standard.

C++ does not know the notion of threads and this causes problems. Here Hans Böhm "describes an effort to clarify the meaning of multi-threaded C++ programs, and to provide some standard thread-related APIs where those are currently missing".

C++ is a superset of C, right? No, regardless of which version one considers. Here David R. Tribble gives a short explanation about the different standards and lists a lot of incompatilitbities between those.

I recommend reading the C++ FAQ lite. Besides many beginner's question this FAQ covers a lot of issues a C++ developer stumbles over sooner or later.
