One of my favorites on line is

<http://www-atm.physics.ox.ac.uk/user/iwi/charmap.html>

It lets you browse all of the UTF-16 code tables. Each character is a  
clickable button that appends that character to a text field. With the  
click of another button it will convert your string of selected  
characters to a string of HTML unicode entities.
