Links and useful materials

I have recently started reading Brian's notes in more detail, and they look really good - an up to date version of a lot of the stuff in the yellow book.
A set of lecture notes by Mark Kisin. These are less detailed than Mazur's notes in the yellow book, but give a more up-to-date treatment, discussing framed deformations and avoiding Schlessinger. You can download them here (the origional link didn't work well)
Some notes which contain some nice examples, based on framed deformations. These are part of a much larger set of notes which can be found on Brian Conrad's homepage here.
