For more news, you could also go to the source. www.microsoft.com/SQLServer?
An interesting place to get news about SQL Server along with events and training (mostly free) is http://www.sqlpass.org/
There are lots of blogs about SQL Server, some of them are in the blogs section part of this site. A good way to get other blogs would be by searching "T-SQL Tuesday".
I mostly use the forums, but I wander from time to time.
