Project Gutenberg contains numerous books about and sources from the classical era. It offers translations from and a few original latin and greek texts. link to Project Gutenberg (http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Main_Page)
Another source for translated sources (both latin and other languages) is fordham.edu (http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/ancient/asbook.html).
Despite giving acces to tons of translated latin sources, the net doesn't seem to offer a wide variety of original latin sources. The current situation for greek sources (or any other language) seems to be even worse. At the sites mentioned, you're unlikely to find non-famous authors, whereas the quality of the translations and the critical apparatus may differ heavily from text to text.

Here is one, http://classics.mit.edu/, I also use the Gutenberg Project.
Then there is my own roleplaying campaign just kicked off 6 hours ago, http://turbator.blogspot.com/, it has many useful links and more will be added. As will the chapters of the campaign and writeups.
Thanks for the great sites.. If you have any pls put them on...
