For some videos I would recommend Going Native videos (http://channel9.msdn.com/Events/GoingNative/2013)

Also there is The tour of C++ (http://www.stroustrup.com/Tour.html) which offer a fresh start to the language.

But the one book I am waiting for is Effective C++ 11/14 which should coming up next year.

In addition to the Going Native videos, Microsoft's STL wrangler, the conveniently named Stefan T. Lavavej, has a couple of terrific series on the STL itself[1] and the core C++ language[2]. The second course is newer, and thus covers more finalized C++11/14 features.

The more technical videos on Channel 9 are terrific stuff, and hooray for download links! Kudos to Microsoft.

True, Stefan is awesome... C9 is a great source for videos.

Also I forgot to mention C++ and Beyond (http://cppandbeyond.com/video-gallery/)

Likewise! And from your first link there is a sort of preview of Scott Meyers' upcoming book http://channel9.msdn.com/Events/GoingNative/2013/An-Effectiv...

Meyers' presentation slides, with notes, are available and excellent: http://www.artima.com/shop/overview_of_the_new_cpp. They include C++14. It isn't the deep dive, but it's a great overview.
