Internet Medical Search Resources

1. Common WWW / Internet Search Engines

Search web pages and/or Usenet news groups.

The web tends to be limited to motivated information suppliers -- those who have something they want to say, and those who are selling something.

Some magazines are beginning to publish on-line, but they are still rare. Most of these have considerable advertising content.

Some Universities are publishing course outlines and materials via web pages.

Usenet News tends to be limited to those who have something they want to discuss, or something they want to find out more about.
