HTML Dog - HTML and CSS guides and resources
I've ran across HTML Dog a few days ago (probably from a link at A List Apart).
I have spent quite a bit of time reading and refering back to the HTML and CSS guides that the proprietor, Patrick Griffiths, has put together. He also has put together an easily accessible reference to all valid strict XHTML tags.

More Color Tools
Clagnut has collected a short list of color tools:
There are a number of really handy online colour tools coming to my notice. They all help the untrained or unreliable eye to come up with colour schemes based on complimentary and harmonious colours. And, with one exception, they all use very nifty DOM methods and valid XHTML.

Freely Available Software for Windows
A discussion on Slashdot about essential software for a new home PC led to a comment about Pricelessware.org which contains a list of software that are thought to be the best of the freely available Windows software as determined by the Usenet alt.comp.freeware readers.
I’ll have to keep an eye on this list for when I’m forced/required to use Windows for extended periods of time.
