You can view over 250 virtual slides at this website 
that basically turns your computer into a virtual microscope.

You can use your mouse to control what area of each slide to look at
and you can increase and decrease the magnification
(zoom in and zoom out) to get an overall view or to focus on details.

There are lots of explanatory notes and links that accompany each slide.
