Game theory, "a major branch of economic analysis", is well served online: Gametheory.net is one the best resources, with links to many simulators and readings on offer. For instance, Michael Bean's Price War Simulator models the HP-Compaq vs Dell price war (initiated by Dell), and provides a wealth of cogent analysis and background to the market outcomes.
Oligopolywatch.com is Steve Hannaford's blog (he does appear to be a man obsessed), and contains an awful lot of material about both oligopoly in theory and examples of markets and firm's behaviour.
