I can highly recommend stackoverflow.com from my personal experience. I've never used it, but refactormycode.com looks pretty good too. There will also be plenty more sites that are language/framework/library specific. Rubyflow.com is excellent for Ruby news. Subscribe to mailing lists and Google Groups. Scope out talented programmers by looking for good blogs and good code on Github. Never be scared to send out emails to total strangers for advice. It costs nothing to ask, but the benefits can be huge. Good luck!
