I've been meaning to mention a useful site I found quite a while ago. If you play guitar or piano at all, check it out. It's the looknohands.com chord house. Enter the Guitar Room (or Piano Room if that's your thing) and select the chord you want to learn about. It shows you the fingering, the notes you're playing, and let's you hear what it sounds like. You can even add multiple chords to a list and then have it play through the list. And this seems to be a pretty exhaustive list of chords (unlike some of the other references I've found), including different options for the same chord. The Advanced Guitar Room lets you do the same for alternative tunings and includes scales as well. (I stick to the Easy Room.)
The funny thing is, on occasion, I've even used this site backwards: I'm playing a chord, but I don't know exactly what chord it is. It's pretty quick and easy to go through the list (especially if I know it's some type of E chord for instance) and find the one that matches the fingering I'm using.
