When Zikula 1.0 was released, the team included a Tour module in the package. The purpose of this module is to give new users an overview of the site features. One thing that few may realize is that any module can add their own tour in to the module. The process is fairly simple, and you can look at the Tour module itself for more hints, but the basic process involves adding a file called tour_page1.htm to the /pndocs folder of your module. I've added an initial page to the Wiki, which I will work on expanding and cleaning up in the coming days, but be aware of this useful tool.

indeed, the more people make use of it, the better the new user experience will be. It might even be a good idea to have a "Tour" field in the Addons.
There are also a lot of the 3rd party modules (formerly belonging to the Core) that dont have a Tour page.
