Newsday has posted a new Sept. 11 victims database. It's very much needed, as researchers have been having trouble answering victim questions from the previously available lists. This is searchable and browsable in several formats, and, since it's a Tribune Company project, should be available at the other papers too. Announced at Editor & Publisher.

A couple nice sites from Tara Calishain's Research Buzz page:

History.UK.com is a huge British history site with search engine, timeline, and links.

Metacrawler: the meta-search engine has been revamped and now searches Google as well as About, Ask Jeeves, FAST, FindWhat, Inktomi, LookSmart, Excite, OpenDirectory, Overture, and Sprinks.
