How about one about Lens Hoods. Their uses, advantages, disadvantages and is it really worthy to have one.

Lens hoods are essential and you should have one for each lens-They not only protect lenses,but improve contrast and help prevent flare and stray light entering the lens. Ken

Online, there are a few paid eBooks and other tutorials for the D90, but hardly anything for the D5000. Here is one that I could find
D5000 | Digitutor | Global Site | Nikon Imaging

Not sure where you are located, but I would suggest you get hold of a good book on basics of Nikon cameras. One suggestion is this book
Amazon.com: David Busch’s Nikon D5000 Guide to Digital SLR Photography (9781435454972): David D. Busch: Books
