Many ARIA resources (intros, videos, tutorials, implementations) are
collected here:
http://wiki.codetalks.org/wiki/index.php/ARIA_Resources

It's just over 2 years old now, but I like Estelle Weyl's explanation:
<http://www.evotech.net/blog/2009/03/wai-aria-accessible-rich-internet-applications-basics/>;

From the W3C there is:
http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices/

And, last but not least, since we are here courtesy of WebAIM:
WebAIM: Accessibility of Rich Internet Applications
http://webaim.org/techniques/aria/
