Two good places to look for websites on a specific topic that have been reviewed are:
Librarian's Index to the Internet
or look at the suggestions below.
You can also use a search engine like Google.
Just be aware of what information you are getting!!!!!!!!!
Ask yourself:
Who put this information here? (Might they be biased?)
What expertise do they have about this topic? (Are they a PhD at a university or Joe-Bob in his basement?)
Why did they put it here? (Are they trying to sell something or convince me of a particular point of view?)
When did they put it here?

FreeTranslation.com
http://www.freetranslation.com
This online machine translation service has a few things going for it that make it the first choice for this type of translation. Rather than doing word-for-word translating, it attempts to translate entire phrases. It's very fast. It also completely translated a Web page with more than 15,000 words. In contrast, AltaVista's Babel Fish (http://babelfish.altavista.com/) translated only about the first 1,500 words and Go Translator did about 4,400. Remember, though, machine translation is just to provide basic comprehension of text or Web Pages. Currently translates English to French, Spanish, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Norwegian, and, French, Spanish, and German to English. [cl] (LII: http://lii.org/)
