Ideas for a small indoor herb garden?

Well summer is drawing near it's end here in Milwaukee, WI. I'm bummed out about it, but obviously can not change it so I have to deal with it. I would like to either use some of my herbs that are in the garden now and transplant them to small post for indoors or start a few things from seed. I'd like to see if you folks could suggest a few herbs that would be ok indoors. I plan to leave them in a window with perhaps a small grow light shining on them.
I'm going to have to look into propagation of Rosemary and Thyme, and Basil. Anything else you folks use in window gardens?

I purchased a pot of herbs at the beginning of the summer containing parsely, sage, oregano, thyme and rosemary. Unfortunately, most of them perished, except the sage and parsley. So...I could use some help too. :oops: Having an older home creates a cool, southern kitchen window in winter.
