The Topology Atlas is a huge database of (mostly research-level) information on topology. It includes a page of lecture notes in topology, for example.

More generally, there is the rather entertaining Interactive Mathematics Miscellany page. My favorite little tidbit so far has been "[By the extreme value theorem,] for any object there is a distance at which it looks its best." (It took me a little while to figure out why that was actually true.)
