From Transum Mathematics comes Flash tables which will present you with random questions from your chosen tables and then show the answer at the speed you select. Also from Transum, see this great Tables Collection which has several activities to try.
Use this PhET simulation to practise your tables, you can choose, Multiply, Factor or Divide which is an excellent idea. You may know that 6×9=54, but are you just as quick when dividing 54 by 9?
Have a look at Multiplication by Heart.
