Cool looking spider... Here are some decent ID'ing sites ive found over time...
http://www.giffbeaton.​com/ (external link) ---- this guys info is generally based in georgia but i would assume that it might be of help.

http://www.insectident​ification.org/spiders.​asp (external link)
http://www.spiders.us/​guide/species/ (external link)

Also if you can not ID it that wouldnt surprise me considering how many different types there are. If you can get National Geographic Wild where you are look for a special on there called "super Spider" its pretty awesome.

If I'm not mistaken, that is a male Oxyopes, or a Lynx spider. Not sure of species. You can figure that part out :D

EDIT: Looks like maybe tridens? http://bugguide.net/no​de/view/707141/bgimage (external link)

Flickr also has a couple of groups dedicated to IDing things. A couple of them are sort of warring right now though.
