Useful Stuff: Writing

Sites wot I sometimes turn to when writing:

Reference.com: Dictionary and thesaurus.
Poetry.com rhyming dictionary: Apparently nothing rhymes with ‘dictionary’.
Guardian Unlimited: Style Guide: Full of quirky details and the occasional cartoon.
The Economist: Style Guide: Clearly structured (rather than just an A–Z of miscellaneous points).
Get It Write: Tip Archive: Lots more finger-wagging advice.
Lorem Ipsum Generator: More traditional than my Text Generator.

"Apparently nothing rhymes with ‘dictionary’."
Must not be a very good rhyming dictionary, I can think of a bunch off the top of my head. Big and hairy, the tooth fairy, guy named Larry, etc.

Yeah, that was my way of pointing out that it's rather limited in some cases. Other sites, such as http://www.rhymer.com/ , produce more results but tend to require more careful filtering because of that.
