it depends really on what you are looking for :D
or whatever u are planning for that matter..

For me, the "BEEJ's Guide to Network Programming"
tutorial was really helpful.   For the past 6 years or so,
it is still the primary reference I recommend to trainees
and or anyone new to network programming.

I have mungkey to thank for this :D

But that doesnt mean mungkey or my other friends
would say the same thing if they are asked
what "Unsa mga books nabasa ninyo na nakatabang
jud ug ayu sa career  ninyo as programmers or developers?"

It could be a non-programming book like
"Little Prince" or a poem/article by Bo Sanchez or
one of the  works of oscar wilde. Or perhaps a spiritual
or a book on management.

And like what Miko Suria said, programming is a very broad
subject and it really depends on what you intend to develop
or plan with your career.  It could be anything from creating
web-based systems to server administration or on another
perspective: from freelancing to becoming an IT Manager.

And besides, there is a difference between "unsay nakatabang
sa inyong career" and ur job-related knowledge. :D
It doesnt mean if you're the dumbest programmer, you are the
one that is least likely to succeed.  There is no real straight line
between technical capability and success in "professional/financial"
career.  (But of course, it is just my viewpoint but I know many would
agree)

But if you are a technical programmer who is more into
c-like coding (or languages like Java or
PHP, etc), you can start with books on design patterns :D
I suggest reading first the original "gang of four" book.
Try surfing and searching for Erich Gamma.

And if you are interested in web programming or systems
programming, you can add XML to your list of topics.
You can start at w3schools website.

And I would give the same suggestion regarding blogsites.
Try joelonsoftware.  Search for it.  It might be helpful to you.

Good Luck
