The National Archives
This is my favorite resource when I am doing research.
The National Archives, the official archive for England, Wales, and also for central UK government, contains 900 years of history with digital files of parchment and paper scrolls being put on websites, along with audio files
It is more than capable of meeting the demands of a student, a teacher, or doing private research into such areas as Family History, with online tutorials and an extensive variety of guides all designed to help you locate, interpret and understand the records you need for your area of research.
There is even a kids section.

Telephone Research
My other hat (LOL) is one of a researcher. I am in the somewhat enviable position of being able to spend my days lounging by the pool, sipping margaritas and lesiurely being able to switched between my vast Internet empire and telephoning people to asks them strange and revealing questions about such topics as the parents perceptions of provision of music and movement classes for preschool children, to what financial advisers believe to be the up and coming trends in the financial world. Or even dare to ask the question are plumbers anymore happier in their roles than beauticians.
Well, its a life ..now where did I put that drink?
