Useful websites

I went to law school as legal research was shifting from book-based to computer-based. So I learned to do research with books, and I like them. I have a full set of the Oregon Supreme Court Reporter and the Oregon Court of Appeals reporter in my office. But in practice I spend a lot more time researching on the computer, and I use these sites regularly in my practice.
