Are there any good Scala blogs you regularly follow?

A:
Off course (aside Scala-blogs), the one and only ;) :
Algorithmically challenged from SO contributor Daniel (Sobral)
And (very in-depth posts)
One Div Zero from James Iry (on SO as well)
But also:
- scalide (for new about the IntelliJ plugin for Scala support)
- Caoyuan's Blog (for news about the Netbeans plugin for Scala support)
- Scala-Tools (not a blog but a mailing list, for news about the Eclipse plugin for Scala support)
- Ruminations of a Programmer: not updated every day for scala, but the posts are very interesting
- Jim McBeath
And I should not forget:
- CodeCommit from Daniel Spiewak, off course... (another SO contributor)
- James Strachan's Blog from the "groovy" point of view. (wait, a SO contributor as well!)

You are smoking something weird, obviously. There's no way I can hope to even appear in the same roll as One Div Zero!

@Daniel: well, I did stumble on Scala through your posts on SO, and then your blog, so there. The order reflects only my experience with this topic and is not meant to be an *absolute* reference ;)

artima.com isn't a pure Scala blog, but it has some nice articles. Here's one about Scala on Twitter:

Check out planetscala.com- it's a collection of Scala-related blogs. Actually most of the blogs listed are aggregated there.

VonC's answer is excellent, and really, the only two you need are
since they aggregate so many others.
is also a nice blog that frequently features Scala. I don't think others have mentioned it yet.

Well... there isn't much left, is there? Try the Artima Scala Buzz, though.

For learning the language, Jesse Eichar's Daily Scala has been my favorite one lately.
I've hooked the RSS feed into my google reader, and it acts now as a recipe book for Scala.

I follow scala source code , and it has been very helpful in understanding on how to use scala concepts . Ex: scala 2.8 collections implementation makes great use of higher kinded types, implicits, abstract types, self types...
scala website itself features papers talks and journals, which are really good.
There is also scala internals groups http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.scala.internals, where the language designers and implementors dish out their ideas
Apart from that follow the blogs and yeah don't forget to get your hands dirty.
