That is one I use all the time for work. It's a free, online search of court records in the state of Iowa. I'm sure that other states have something similar, too. When I first started working here, in order to do a search like that you had to go to the courthouse and log on (with difficulty, I might add) to the system and search from there. Now you can do it from any computer with internet access.

(And, yep, my two speeding tickets from a few years ago are there.)
