IndymacBank was listed previously but fell off the list by lowering its rate. Now, it appears that they have a new offering; the "Online E-Money Market" which qualifies, so I'm putting them back on the list. (However, Indymac Bank is mentioned as one that is in "dire straits" by the MarketWatch article; FYI.)
As for FDIC insurance, each of the accounts listed here are FDIC insured.
If you are looking up FDIC info for online savings accounts, you'll have to make sure that you are looking at the root name for the bank behind the online offering. For instance, OnBank is a Division of M&T Bank, N.A., Savings Square is a product of Kirkpatrick Bank, etc.
