I read a post recently (I can’t remember where, but it might be from Lifehacker) about a new site that provides access to lots of legal forms, forums and related information. They consolidated legal information from a bunch of different sites, including sites specific to states and niche areas. Check out The Public Library of Law.

Techcrunch had a post discussing a new site called RivalMap, which as they state “is web-based collaboration software that gives companies a central place to share and address information about competitors and their industry.” The post also mentions prior reviews of similar tools, so it’s a good place to go for information and sites if you are in need of keep a close eye on your competitors.

Entrepreneur.com had a good article on search engines you probably haven’t heard of. They include some large ones, but mostly niche sites that are great for specific needs. This includes searches for product wholesalers, US Government sits and information or even lawyers. Check out the list today.

Check out this list of 20 online references to allow you to ween yourself from Wikipedia. Of course, who would want to do that? Scholastici.us has a nice list including Encyclopedia Britannica and Oxford English Dictionary.
