I really like reading Dustin Campbell's blog: http://diditwith.net/ He goes through a lot of examples for solving problems using F#. He is an elegant blogger, and the code he produces is really easy to follow.

Expert F# is such a great book that it's really all you need to get deep into F#.
Otherwise, I suggest you check out the F# team blogs:
- Don Syme: Announcements from the designer of F#.
- Chris Smith: Some interesting code snippets.
- Andrew Kennedy: Tutorial on Units of Measure.
- Luke Hoban: Some thoughtful examples.
- Brian McNamara: A more philosophical perspective.
- Jomo Fisher: Tips.

I found Expert F# to be completely inaccessible to F# newbies :) Supplementing the book with Foundations of F# really helps.

Weird, I found the opposite. Expert F# was the first F# resource I really looked at that made me understand anything.

Brian McNamara's blog is my favourite. It's a bit misleading to call it "philisophical", I'd say rather that it often addresses the context in which technical issues arise.

Hi, I apologize for a shameless plug, but hopefully you'll find some of the links useful!
- I wrote an F# overview, which is a brief F# quick-start document.
There are some other F# related posts in my blog.
.. and I'm writing a book called Real-world Functional Programming in .NET - the book is primarilly targeted at .NET audience, so if you have prior C# experience and no functional programming knowledge, it may be a good choice for you. The first chapter and overview article is available for free.

I've been writing F Sharp Programming on Wikibooks. Its slowly coming along and I haven't yet written the articles on advanced topics, but its newbie friendly and should get you started quickly.

Ahhh.. now we know who's behind it! Very nice work. I highly recommend it to F# newbies.

We publish lots of free F# content on our F# News blog and sell lots of commercial content as well (books, on-line magazines, libraries etc.).

I maintain a list in my blog F# and Data Mining.
You can see the list at the right side of the blog page.
The Planet FSharp also has links to a lot of blogs.

There are a few blogs by the F# team members:
- The first link in the list must be:
Don Syme's WebLog on F# and Related Topics - this is the blog of the main F# language designer - Inside F# by Brian McNamara who is a developer in the F# team
- LukeH's WebLog by Luke Hoban who is a PM in the F# team
- Chris Smith is a former F# team member now, but the archive contains many intersting things
Other blogs from the community:
- I write a blog (mostly) about F#
- Strangelights by Robert Pickering
- Matthew Podwysocki (from MSFT) writes about a lot of things, but has an intersting F# category
- There are also several blogs on the F# Hub
EDIT: I see you already follow some of them, but I'll keep the links here for other visitors.

I would recommend also this two blogs:
- Vladimir Matveev's blog
- Laurent Le Brun's blog (especially if you understand French)
