To help fellow english speakers learning german, I've compiled a list of learning resources. I'll update and maintain it as I have time.
1. http://www.byki.com/ - $40 German practice drill software. Free version lets you see how it works.
2. http://www.verbix.com/languages/german.shtml - Free online verb conjugator
3. http://www.muenchen-tv.de/ - News and streaming TV from Munich
4. http://www.dradio.de/dlf/ - Streaming german radio. Great way to practice your listening skills. Can be ripped into mp3/ogg to listen later or grab the shows you want to hear.
5.http://www.amazon.com/Collins-Concise-Dictionary-HarperCollins-Dictionaries/dp/0062760580/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1218166183&sr=8-9
One of the better paper dictionaries in my opinion.
6.http://www.amazon.com/German-Idioms-Barrons-Henry-Strutz/dp/0812090101/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1218166327&sr=1-1
A bit more advanced, but entertaining to read at any level. Helps you translate sayings like "having a skeleton in the closet"
7. http://www.dict.cc - the online dictionary I use the most
8. http://www.amazon.de/Glaubeliebetod-Premium-Oomph/dp/B000ELL1KI/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1218166457&sr=8-4 - One of my fav German bands (you can listen to samples for free)
