This might not be exactly what you were looking for but I find it interesting:

http://yoast.com/
https://twitter.com/jdevalk

He talks about a variety of things like online marketing, blog design, SEO, Wordpress tools. Probably the most interesting thing on his site (for me) is this video and slideshow of a talk he gave on Wordpress SEO. Interesting not so much for the techie stuff as the insights into human behaviour on websites.

Oops... sorry, I just noticed that one of my copy-and-paste's didn't work. I have 2 net.tutsplus.com entries.

This is the other blog I meant to paste here: http://www.webresourcesdepot.com/

Regarding Twitter following. Personally, I find that the blogs are doing a lot better job of teaching me the skills that I need to stay on my game. Folks put a lot of work into writing the articles in the blogs above. While Twitter is great for a lot of stuff, I think that blogs are where it's at for this sort of thing.
