Are there any worthwhile sites around detailing the ins and outs to poetic meter?

I don't know about websites, but there's a great book on the topic, Paul Fussell's "Poetic Meter and Poetic Form", which should tell you everything you need to know. He's a very engaging writer and this is a worthwhile read for anyone who likes the English language, not just for poets.

And don't forget www.terra-dactyl.com

So do I -- one of the professors in my department was his classmate at Harvard. Small world.
