Are there any free online tools out there to make visio kind of diagrams. I would like to practice my flowchart skills. Are there any good sites or books or articles out there that discuss best practices for flowchart diagrams.

+1 for Dia. It's also cross-platform, which won me over. Another advantage of Dia is that the diagrams are stored in compressed XML.
I had a project where I needed to diagram something in the database, and I was able to write a program to create Dia-compatible XML from the database, which saved me a HELL of a lot of typing and drawing. I just had to reposition and resize the objects.
