Good post from Hackaday on how lasers actually work - seems to cover all the points with good explanations (And some nice graphics to go with them!), although may be a little in depth for some.

Also a good video in the comments that'd be worth a watch.

Thanks guys!

See the question come up from time to time and it isn't always easy to find a real good explanation online. Hopefully this'll be useful to some folk!
