I forgot FreeReg and Genuki. Both very handy sites.
I am Australian, from all the lands I come (my ancestors, at least!)

Pine/Pyne, Dowdeswell, Kempster, Sando/Sandoe/Sandow, Nancarrow, Hounslow, Youatt, Richardson, Jarmyn, Oxlade, Coad, Kelsey, Crampton, Lindner, Pittaway, and too many others to name.
Devon, Dorset, Gloucs, Cornwall, Warwickshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire, Wilts, Germany, Sweden, and of course London, to name a few.

I also find GENUKI very useful, and the Rootsweb lists for various countries/counties and special interests.

4 years ago I mentioned the names of my grandparents on my own website. A half first cousin who I didn't even know about found me by searching for the names. Another one found me the same way a year later.

And, this one, very America-centric but useful for new ideas.
