Some of these are excellent websites, but others like MaxDPS...well frankly that one is simply garbage.

Seconded. MaxDPS ranges from iffy to "are they kidding?"

Rawr should be on the list of tools, though it will make some nervous (stand alone program) and is currently nearly unusable for Mac players.

Tread carefully with game mechanics information on Wowwiki. It's not always accurate and often not up-to-date. (Ie., it's a wiki.) Useful for lore info and quest chains, etc, though.

The single mod to have, before all others, is RatingBuster. Once you have some idea of the value of stats (summation pages on EJ can help here if you don't want to do tests yourself) it makes eyeballing sooo much easier.
