The link Quicksilver posted has a lot of useful software suggestions.

For websites...

Macintouch, Lowendmac, Macrumors, Ilounge.

I recommend Quicksilver (the app, not the DHC member - although I'm sure he's a fine fellow

) for quickly finding and launching files, apps, phone numbers, etc. When I'm using a Windows computer, it's the thing I miss the most.
