If you are doing investigations, you have to include internet research in doing the job. So, social networking sites are a must search. Here is a good article by Cliff Landis, a reference librarian at Valdosta State University, listing social networking sites and places to learn about social networking: Article Social Networking
The article lists all the sites and other sites to learn more about the social sites. Our good friends at PI Buzz, just posted a note on the importance of using the Internet for due diligence, background, employment and skip tracing investigations, as well as, reputation research and even surveillance for legal and insurance matters.

You never know when you need airline flight information or airport information. Below is good starting point.
Google Launches Better Results for Flight Status: See Google Blog: “For the latest information on a flight’s status, simply search for an airline and flight number, and the first result will tell you whether your flight is on time or delayed as well as the estimated departure and arrival times.”
FlightAware Flight Awareoffers live flight data, airport information, weather maps and charts, as well as aviation news to nearly two million users a month. FlightAware also powers operational management and dispatch software, airport FIDS (flight information displays), and provides reporting data to aircraft and airport operators.
You can track planes by flight# or aircraft tail #. You can also track airport activity. Access FAA aircraft registration data for US registered aircraft.
