User Interface Blog) have helped me greatly to understand the more exotic and subtle features of the language, along with the patterns that exploit those features.

Now I've discovered a similar collection of articles by Peter Michaux. They often riff on Crockford's ideas, sometimes offering a fresh perspective and sometimes explaining things in a more accessible way. Well worth a read for aspiring JavaScript ninjas.
