Best blogs to follow?

Hey Everybody
Im fairly new to SEO and would like to ask which blogs would be beneficial to follow to keep ahead of the ever changing algorithms and methods.
I'm already a avid reader of the SEOMOZ blog which I find a invaluable source of information.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Can't not say I'm a fan of the Distilled blog! http://www.distilled.net/blog/
And there's lots of great (especially for link building) posts on SEER Interactive: http://www.seerinteractive.com/blog/
Finally, there's just been too many good posts recently from Ross Hudgens to ignore him anymore: http://www.rosshudgens.com/

Ooof there are so many and really it depends if you want news, tips or want to learn more about a particular niche. In lieu of a long list I'd recommend SEO Gadget, State of Search and SEO Theory.

don't forget search engine land
-
I like
http://www.cre8asiteforums.com/forums/ (not a blog, but a forum)
http://www.searchenginejournal.com/
What I do, though, is follow a bunch of seo people on twitter including @randfish, @rosshudgens @jillwhalen @seobook @krisroadruck @mattcutts @aaronwall and @searchengineland. These folks always point out the new and good content in the seo world.
-
Definitely add http://mattcutts.com/blog to the list
-
I like the SEO Moz blog the best. You should also follow the Official Google Blog http://googleblog.blogspot.com/
Search Engine Watch is another good one http://searchenginewatch.com/page/newsletters

Best French language articles on basic on-page optimization
I work for a bilingual organization and we've recently started more hands-on training for staff and content creators for SEO and content creation. We've put together a good guide in English but I'm hoping we can provide the French speakers with some solid French SEO articles that can help fill in the gaps that we don't get translated. We're looking for a basic guide to SEO, similar to Moz's guide to on-page SEO (in content, doesn't need to be as fancy). Thanks in advance!

Best X-Cart SEO Solutions / Modules?
We recently acquired an e-commerce client that uses X-Cart. We have no previous experience with this platform and it's hard to find any good / helpful info regarding SEO functionality online. Right now I need to figure out how to handle mass redirects of 404 errors, friendlier URLs, resolving duplicate content, XML sitemap generation, robots.txt generation. The functionality built into the platform so far is terrible and all of the modules are pricey. Any recommendations, general or specific, would be insanely helpful if anybody out there has experience with this particular platform. Thanks!

Schema, RDFa or microformats? Which is best for long-term success in a competitive market vertical?
I've read statements compelling one to think about Schema as a "sports car" and RDFa (and microformats) as a diesel truck... both having merit depending on what you want to do. Although Schema was just announced and seems to have broad support - is it compatible with RDFa 1.1 syntax? I've utilized microformats on a few site with great success but embarking on a very large project and feel structured markeup would give an edge over the competition. Would love to have a discussion with folks on this subject. Thanks!
