These 3-page pdfs contain a table of all rituals (that I know of) in official WotC products. The table contains everything but the actual ritual text, available in three forms:
Updated June 05 2009
Added a Requirements column so you can find bard rituals or feat specific rituals easily.
If there are any errors found, please post here to let me know. I will be updating at the start of the month from now on, so I can double check with D&D Insider whether or not I'm missing any rituals before I update the sheets.

Wow, those are some really useful spreadsheets. I'll have to bring those with me to my group next time. This will be a very useful way to keep track of which rituals we know in our party. Thanks!
BTW, do you have any favorite Non-PHB rituals? We have a few of the extra books and I have the Ritually Speaking article from DDI, but what about all those rituals you have listed from Open Grave? Are there any that are REALLY good, or are the just slight variations on the PHB ones?

I would say the best book for PC rituals after the PHB is the Forgotten Realms Player's Guide, for things like Seek Rumor, Deathly Shroud, Status. Draconomicon is all rituals for a dm to use to prepare a lair. Open Grave is good for PCs, with an obvious undead theme. Manual of the Planes is good for a paragon level group that is going to the planes, but otherwise doesn't apply much to anyone.
"This is a great index, I am glad to see someone pick up the torch because it's so easy to get lost among waves of supplements... Thanks for the work you've done."
Thanks for the kind words everyone. I'm glad to keep this going. Unfortunately this month's update pushes into 3-page territory. I thought about squishing the formatting to keep it on two pages, but with Arcane Power coming right up followed with Divine Power and the Eberron Player's Guide, I figured it's not going to stay a short index for long.
As always, if anyone finds something wrong or missing, please post here or PM me and I'll see it gets fixed.
Tremorsense, you're work is full of awesome and win. Thank you very, very much!

I don't know if you think this is a good idea or not, but I'd like to see this content in a frequently-updated Google public spreadsheet or something similar. It could be publicly viewable but only editable by you, but then I could have a quick link to it in my Google Docs which I already use for everything else anyway.
I suppose I could just copy the data from the pdf into a text file and convert that to a spreadsheet, but it would be pretty cool if the content were accessible in that format by deafult. Then you wouldn't have to make a new pdf every month or two when new books come out. You could just update the spreadsheet and everyone would be able to see the changes. If people want to add their own, they can make their own copy of your data inro a spreadsheet they would have write permission to, and edit away all they want.
It would be cool but it's just a suggestion. If you don't think it's a good idea, then I'll work on doing it myself. I wouldn't want to make mine public though since you're the one who has done all the work. I'll just keep it to myself.

I'm currently looking into this. I'm not terribly familiar with Google Docs, but I expect I can provide this within a week or two.
As requested, an online version is available through Google Docs. When I converted my file to the google file, some information was lost. I think I've restored it all, but let me know if there's anything wrong.
I'll update the google file when I get my hands on Arcane power, and the pdfs will be updated at the end of the month as usual after I've double checked Dragon & Dungeon for any new rituals.
Updated with the rituals from Arcane Power. The google doc link has been changed; in the future I will try to keep the link the same, but I'm still getting the hang of editing with GoogleDocs. Don't expect much of an update next month, unless something big pops up in Dragon.
Are you done with this? It's currently missing Eberron and Divine Power. I suppose it's relatively easy for someone to just use the Compendium for the list or the Character Builder for details.
