Default Trying to ID lawn weed

Trying to ID this lawn weed | https://rapidshare.com/files/3184627038/WeedSample.jpg

Little leaves like hopps. I believe they have blue flowers.

Checked http://www.ipm.ucdavis.edu/PMG/weeds_common.html &
http://www.rce.rutgers.edu/weeds/thumbnail.asp

Anyone have other lawn weed photo gallery sites ?

Thanks EdPaolo / New Jersey

Blue flowers? It could be some sort of speedwell:
Veronica arvensis, V. agrestis, V. persica
....and others...

Some of these are perennial, some are winter annuals.

Are the stems rounded or square? Any pictures available of the weed
in the lawn (or less wilted, with a scale nearby)?

Yes, that is what Scott's says they look like Veronica.

Thanks for the info / reply back.
