I suppose the best one is this link:
http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Indexes/HistoryTopics.html
although it still makes me wince at various places. And I suppose some of the Wikipedia articles are all right.

Honestly you could do worse than the 1911 (now out of copyright, available at http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/22599) book by Karpinksi and Smith, The Hindu-Arabic Numerals.

Out of curiosity, what are you using currently?
