What are some good resources for aspiring web designers?
What are some good resources for aspiring web designers? I've been a software developer and web app builder for nearly a decade but my UI skills are from an engineer's perspective. I appreciate quality design and great UX and I'd like to become a better designer myself, what are some good resources to get started with and/or follow (i.e. blogs, twitter accounts, etc)?

I'll start with a couple that I think are relevant:

 - http://www.alistapart.com/
 - http://www.sitepoint.com/books/design2/ (the principles of beautiful web design)

Thanks in advance.
