Adrian Roselli: A Simple Character Entity Chart. Both entity names and entity numbers are listed, along with the representation of the character (so you can test for compatibility by loading this page in your browser). [dive into mark]

This is SOOOOO incredibly useful, you can't imagine.  Just a year ago this week, Dr. Bonzo was pulling his hair out because an XSLT transform he was executing was producing character entity references that a significant fraction of his audience weren't able to see (because they were running NS4.x).  Having this chart on hand would have made his life several orders of magnitude more liveable at the time.
