About.com

I have to say that this website is now on par with Amazon and wikipedia when it comes to reference help. Whenever I want more info on a book or CD, it's Amazon. Historical stuff, definitions, or profiles, wikipedia. And when you want to learn something you know nothing about, it's About.com.

It's where I learned a TON about investing (http://beginnersinvest.about.com/), golf (http://golf.about.com/od/beginners/), and freelancing (http://freelancewrite.about.com/od/freelancewriting101/index.htm).

It's a great learning guide that takes things more seriously and gives you more practical information that something like the For Dummies series.

I feel I should mention that I'll probably be buying some New York Times Corporation stock soon and that About.com is owned by them. Trust me, it's just a happy coincidence.
