Education & Science

http://www.engineeringk12.org/precollege/ addresses important questions like "What is Engineering?" and "Is Engineering for me?"
http://www.roche.com/sci_gengen_cdrom.htm is the online interactive CD Rom full of genetics and DNA related tutorials written for high schools students.
http://www.exploratorium.edu/ is chocked full of fun information. They also have answers to a lot of common questions in their "snack" section http://www.exploratorium.edu/snacks/
http://www.ndt-ed.org/EducationResources/HighSchool/Electricity/hs_elec_index.htm offers basic tutorials covering fundamentals of electricity. They also have some career guidance information at http://www.ndt-ed.org/Welcome/welcome_jr_sr_high.htm
For a completely different view of the world around you look through the microsopic lenses at http://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/dna/highdensity.html

Robotics

http://www.techgeek.com/ is a bunch of folks sharing real experiences in building robots "out of their garage"
http://www.robotbuilder.co.uk/forum/ is a discussion forum focused on advanced, yet practical, robotics issues.
http://www.robotbooks.com/ has lots of robot literature, kits, and toys
http://www.robot-japan.com/ is almost completely focused on the toys, but you might find some practical information
http://www.hobbyengineering.com/ goes beyond robotic toys to offer some real actuators, sensors, and some more complex kits.
http://www.yehder.com/ gives you some idea of what kind of gears are available out there.
You can probably find some cheap components at http://scientificsonline.com/default.asp ...but you'll probably just get distracted looking at all the other fun stuff to play with.
