Schneier's blog is interesting, but it might not be what you are looking for.
Schneier cowrote practical cryptography and that sounds like a book you might
want to read. It goes through the process of building a random number
generator (fortuna) and the discussion about decisions made is instructive.
DJB has a cryptography page that references a lot of papers and is in the
process of writing a book on high speed cryptography. You will probably find
some useful stuff there (http://cr.yp.to/highspeed.html and
http://cr.yp.to/streamciphers.html, but not http://cr.yp.to/crypto.html which
is still locked, probably because his lawsuit was considered moot and he may
still want to bring his case back if the government starts picking on
cryptographers again.).
