Planet Ubuntu is a blog aggregator. Not every post will be about Ubuntu but there's a good selection of blogs within it.

It's a newer site that's growing fast. They talk about Ubuntu, and to a certain extent Linux in general.

Disclaimer: This is one of the many, many blogs that I contribute to from time to time.

Ubuntu Weblogs is another aggregator for Ubuntu-related blogs. It stays pretty much on-topic at the cost of fewer updates. According to their "About" section:

Unlike Planet Ubuntu, this Planet is open to anyone who writes about Ubuntu or any derivative.

I have my own site (DorkBlog) but it's private at the moment. Should you desire to view it, I'd need to allow your IP. Or anyone's for that matter. :)

Probably the best I have found is *nixCraft and Commandlinefu Not necessarily Ubuntu-specific, but good none-the-less to sharpen one's teeth on.

There's The Linux Action Show which isn't an Ubuntu specific video podcast exactly, but they do cover everything that's new in the Linux/Unix community in general (and there's something happening to Ubuntu quite often these days).

It's a weekly show which is being recorded live every Sunday. Every monday the show (+- 50 minutes) is delivered through rss and available on their website in every format you'd care about.

Topics range from Linux gaming in general, to reviewing Ubuntu 10.10 and derivatives like Mint.

They do have their own opinion and are (sometimes painfully) objective and stick to their own principles. If you can handle that, you're bound to appreciate their sense of humor.
