If you have AIM, IM smarterchild. He is a robot. Then either answer or ignore his questions. Then type in Shakespeare. He'll ask you,"What would you like to do in Shakespeare?
1 Search for a word or phrase in all plays
2 Search for a word or phrase in a particular play
3 Read a play" Type 3. He will say,"Which Shakespeare play would you like to read?
1 The Tragedy of Antony and Cleopatra
2 All's Well That Ends Well
3 As You Like It
4 The Comedy of Errors
5 The Tragedy of Coriolanus
6 Cymbeline
7 A Midsummer Night's Dream
Type more for more choices."
Either type MORE, or choose a play.
=) Hope I helped!

Shakespeare's plays are usually very long. The best thing to do is to go to your local library and take out a book called "The Complete Works of Shakespeare." If they don't have it, you can buy it, or you can obtain a list of Shakespeare's plays and read them from individual books.

Internet Archive.
For example, here is a list of copies of Hamlet you could read online: http://www.archive.org/search.php?query=shakespeare%20hamlet
You can change the search terms to whatever other play or piece of his you might want and it'll show up. Or, you could just enter 'Shakespeare' as the only search term and see all relevant texts. They are all in PDF, txt, or flipbook formats.
Edit: It looks like the MIT source is superior to Internet Archive for just Shakespeare plays--it has them all consolidated in one place and easily accessible.
Internet Archive is still a good source for lots of other stuff--almso anything public domain or with a free sharing copyright can be found there, so it can be useful for a wide variety of research activities or just finding cool stuff to read.
