Can't get better than this

Answer 2

My #1 source for all "bugs" of the United States and Canada is Bugguide.net.  It includes user sent in pictures with ID requests, a database search, taxonomic guide that you can browse through, and general info on the "bug" listed.

Wikipedia can usually provide more information once you find a scientific name.  You will most likely have to go back to the spider's genus or even family though, as it won't have info for all 50,000 species.
