Equilibrium applets by David N. Blauch at Davidson College
http://www.chm.davidson.edu/ChemistryApplets/equilibria/
These are some really good interactive animated illustrations of many aspects of kinetics with some text accompaniment. They may take a good bit of time to load over a 28/56K modem, so you might want to view them in PS-205 or the library.
Browsers must support Java 1.1 or higher in order to execute the applets employed in these pages. JavaScript support is also required. These pages and applets have been tested and found to run correctly under Netscape Navigator 4.73 and Internet Explorer 5.

Shakespeare and Thermodynamics: Dam the Second Law! 

The Human Importance of Activation Energies
by
Frank L. Lambert
http://www.shakespeare2ndlaw.com/
and Frank's newest offering,  www.entropysite.com  with links to those above and articles in J. Chem. Ed

these sites are written for students and intelligent laymen, but those of us who teach science can also really benefit from the fresh perspective and corrections of misconceptions that these sites provide.
