Delicious

Searching "particle physics" into Delicious came up with a whole load of results. However, I was extremely excited when I found this site:
http://www.particlezoo.net/
La la la laLa la la laLa la la laLa la la laLa la la la
The site is extremely educational (and also adorable) as once you click on these little plushy particle toys, you get some information about them. The only criticism I would make is that it doesn't feature beta plus decay, where a proton turns into a neutron while releasing a positron and an electron-neutrino.
Anyway, this site is particularly helpful for me as I'm going to CERN on the 26th! Dance!Dance!
Boogie!
