2+2 Strategy and discussion forums on poker. The very best out there, and a fantastic way to improve your play and understanding. Post your own hands for comment and feedback using bison's converter. Read posts from "Buzz", who is one of the most knowledgeable and helpful posters out there.
Daniel Negreanu's site They now have a discussion forum devoted only to Omaha, so you can find O8 and PLO8 hands discussed.
Hutchinson’s O8 point count system Good system for determining how strong a given O8 hand is pre-flop. Another math-statistical guy ran lots of simulations to determine what the best hands were, and then assigned points to the hands based on characteristics like having AA or having suited cards. Helpful for beginners to get an idea of how strong hands are, but keep in mind its pretty simplistic and doesn't take into account position, pot odds, short-handed vs. multi-way, etc.
Steve Badger’s website Some excellent articles to help you get grounded on how to think about various Omaha games. He also has several years worth of old posts/comments from RPG here
Annie Duke's articles at Ultimate Bet. She has about 7 articles up at their site on Limit Omaha Hi-Low. Well worth a read since she won a WSOP bracelet in this event in 2004.
Pokerlistings.com Click on the "poker strategy" tab at the right to see 3 good O8 articles: Basic Strategy, Starting hands, and Overplaying AAxx, and a longer article below on General Strategy.
Low Limit Omaha Very good intro site on playing low-limit Omaha. Well worth a read.
Bet-the-Pot Has a couple of very good O8 articles.
CardPlayer Magazine – Reasonable articles on all sorts of poker. Most article are too short and simplistic, but you can find some good stuff in there. In particular, Lou Kreiger's articles on starting hands, Mike Cappelletti's articles on O8 in general, and more recently Mark Gregorich's articles on specific hands are good.
WinningOnlinePoker Good articles on O8 and PLO8 play.
Rounders Pro poker player and Omaha/8 expert Adam Schwartz hosts a weekly radio show talking about poker, and runs a site with some articles and other cool stuff. Definitely worth checking out.
Cardrunners High-stakes NL cash game player Taylor Caby offers videos+commentary for sale. Great for NL play.
Stoxpoker High limit HE and NL player Stoxtrader has a website and offers videos+commentary for sale
Live@TheBike Bart and Dave do commentary just like HighStakesPoker on TV. Except they do it much better and have guest commentators like Barry Greenstein. $15/month and well worth it.
Computer Software Sites
Pokertracker Software to track all aspects of your play. Great stuff.
PokerAceSoftware Takes all your Pokertracker data and superimposes it over the tables while you play. Great stuff.
Wilson Turbo Omaha Hi-Low Software lets you play against computer opponents in O8 games. You can also run simulations for various hands. This software was the basis of Bill Boston's book, and Hutchinson's point count system. Note: I have not used this software, but its simulations as posted by others at 2+2 are a valuable tool for analyzing hands and play. The online games are so soft these days though that you're better off playing live opponents than computer simulations, even as a beginner.

Pot Limit Omaha 8/b Links
This game is the closest cousin to Limit O8. But sadly, there just aren't any real sites or books available on this game. Ray Zee and Bob Ciaffones' "Omaha Holdem" both offer a few comments, and Steve Badger has some useful thoughts, but after that there just isn't much info available. Here are the best links
2+2 Same link as above. The O8 Forum there has quite a few PLO8 posts these days. Wintermute, Ribbo, JoshuaMayes (when he posts), emptyshell and I (gergery) all give decent advice
Ribbo.com Ribbo has some hand histories, a PLO8 forum, a prickly personality, and a great understanding of PLO8
Winning On-line Poker Has a great article on PLO8
Steve
Badger's Has a great article covering key principles for
PLO8 play, including bet-ability, 3/4ing, and freerolls.
Omaha High Links
These have nothing to do with O8, but sometimes I get frustrated folding so much and go looking for a game where i can gambool it up. That game is Omaha High, which is truly the action-loving maniac's game of choice. So if you're bored, read up so you don't lose your shirt in this monstrously high-variance form of poker.
