Mapping
Campaign Cartographer - ProFantasy Software brings you everything you need to create great maps for your games.
AutoREALM - an excellent and free mapping program. Us it till you are ready for Campaign Cartographer.
Dungeon Crafter - tile based mapping program, free!
Dungeon Forge - Dungeonforge is an easy-to-use map creation program for Role Playing Games. It is fast and flexible and can produce maps in the style of Dungeoncrafter and Dundjinni (as well as using the same range of art).

Software
Hero Lab - character generator and more.
Tablesmith - Create, edit, and use tables for virtually anything in your campaign - monsters, treasure, inns...you name it!
MonsterDB - MonsterDB is a front-end for a monster database. It was created to allow quick and easy reference to all the monsters in d20 System Reference and other sources once added.
Seventh Sanctum - an EVERYTHING generator!

Inspiring Sites
Microlite20 - the perfect travel size DND game.**** STARS!
Farland - Farland is primarily a free resource for people's pen and paper RPG games, although there is now an online game. This site also as a Mass Combat program that I use to get a feel for how battles might turn out. You can run the battles as many times as you want to get some pretty solid stats. It is a terrific way to do battles when you want to use them as a backdrop for your RPG.
