This decrease the “User first expectation” a lot by trying to apply the same solution across every site: Here’s the link: http://www.socialdesignpatterns.com/

The second, and last, resource is focused directly on UI Patterns for the web. Here http://ui-patterns.com/ I found a lot of approaches that other sites have applied to it’s problems: drop-down menus, Calendar pickers, Activity streams, In-place editors, etc. all of them with screenshots and reviews.
Additionally, you can find a lot of books regarding this subject:
