Enjoy an abundance of links to many interesting subjects from the old Soulis.com Web site as well as online dictionaries, glossaries and encyclopaedias, and more.
1000 Dictionaries list an amazing amount of selected dictionary resources in the following categories:
Business

Additionally it has an interesting list of online resources on:

Apparently the author has gathered an enormous amount of resources through simple Google searches, and he has then pruned, edited, filtered and selected the most fitting ones.
An appropriate approach to create rapidly a fast meta-catalog of content in any field.
Bravo.
