Designer Whey seems to be the most popular and generally available brand. It's carried at pretty much every health and nutrition store I've ever seen. I use the vanilla, which has 2 carbs and 90 cals per scoop, and counts are similar on the other flavors. Most people who make shakes doctor them up in some way, such as by adding frozen berries, cream, davinci syrup, or a little splenda and unsweetened cocoa.
Definitely pick some up -- not only is it great for shakes, but there are lots of cooking uses for it. I make a coffee cake whose main "flour" ingredient is protein powder, and I've seen several recipes for pancake, waffle, and donut batter. You can even use it to make your own protein bars!
