Any guitar people use Chordie?
I'm a mediocre player and I'm fine with that - but I get a lot of satisfaction out of getting a good strum going and hitting most of the chords while singing with other people. Chordie is a fantastic resource if you like to play in front of your laptop.
Not only does it give you chord diagrams next to the song, but you can instantly transpose a song to any key you want from a select box. I also use the "auto-scroll" feature to save me from stopping a song half-way through to move the page down.
At the risk of revealing myself as an Old, here's my Chordie song book from Delicious. Many of the links have been transposed to a comfortable key for me. (if I ever start a band I'll call it GC/DC).

I use this mostly, but google is a good freind since MPAA, and RIAA and the suits got crazy mad and started making people take down tabs and chords that writers wrote by breaking the song down by ear and rewriting it in a simple musical form.
ultimate-guitar is the shizzle. I've used that for a long time, and have uploaded a bunch of songs there as well.

Hadn't seen chordie yet. Looks interesting though. Ultimate-guitar is usually OK, but there's a lot of incorrect tabs there. I use it for weird chords and work the rest out by ear. I dig the GC/DC name. Reminds me of the shirt I saw a few weeks ago:
