I've become addicted to Scott Aaronson's Schtetl-Optimized blog. He's taken the time to delve into a lot of the details about quantum computing that's often glossed over. The bonus is that he's able to put a lot of the physics into language that the non-quantum scientist can grasp.

Most of his posts are on the topic of what quantum computers _can't_ do. So it's interesting to read about the actual physical limits of computing and get a more realistic glimpse of what's in store for our info-driven future.
