I generally view Highscalability.com as a source of knowing what my peers are doing. Sometimes you get a pleasant surprise, but it’s much closer to a newspaper than a journal.
No particulars off hand. Sometimes a cool fact shows up, like how much memory is required just to store X 64 bit integers, but I stopped paying the site attention a while ago. It seems the basics of scaling are pretty well known, which isn’t conducive to a blog format site.
I asked the same question on HN: where do you guys read up about various companies' architectures and designs of larger distributed systems? There are endless resources for learning how to code in X, but not very much on “last gen distrib. system architecture”
There’s not much content here. Lots of words, but few insights.

Not trying to be unconstructively negative, but that’s been the case for highscalability for some time now has it not?
Are there recent articles which went into any depth or offered any valuable insight that you can think of?
