Web app UI design

I've always been interested in UI design, but I have never been very good at it. My previous UI development experience involved Windows via MFC and Java via Swing. Webapp UI design is quite a different beast and I would like to (at a minimum) understand the basics. So I searched around a came up with a couple of key links:

And a couple of books:
  • <a href= "http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0789723107/104-2810709-4065544"> Don't Make Me Think - Krug and Black
  • <a href= "http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/156205810X/104-2810709-4065544"> Designing Web Usability : The Practice of Simplicity - Neilsen
  • <a href= "http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0789723700/104-2810709-4065544"> The Art and Science of Web Design - Veen
  • <a href= "http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0596001967/104-2810709-4065544"> Web Design in a Nutshell - Niederst
Those books seem to emphasize website UI design more than webapp UI design. I'm more intested in creating usable web apps than in creating beautiful web sites. If you have some other website and book recommendations for webapp UI design, I'd like to hear about them.
