The growing use of email and the world wide web (WWW), by the public, academics, and clinicians-as well as the increasing availability of high quality information on the WWW-make a working knowledge of the internet important. Although this article aims to enhance readers' existing use of the internet and medical resources on the WWW, it is also intelligible to someone unfamiliar with the internet. A web browser is one of the central pieces of software in modern computing: it is a window on the WWW, file transfer protocol sites, networked newsgroups, and your own computer's files. Effective use of the internet for professional purposes requires an understanding of the best strategies to search the WWW and the mechanisms for ensuring secure data transfer, as well as a compendium of online resources including journals, textbooks, medical portals, and sites providing high quality patient information. This article summarises these resources, available to incorporate into your web browser as downloadable "Favorites" or "Bookmarks" from www.jnnp.com, where there are also freely accessible hypertext links to the recommended sites.
公众、学者和临床医生对电子邮件和万维网（WWW）的使用日益增加，以及万维网上高质量信息的日益普及，使得掌握互联网的实用知识变得很重要。尽管本文旨在提高读者对互联网及万维网上医学资源的现有使用水平，但对于不熟悉互联网的人来说也易于理解。网络浏览器是现代计算中的核心软件之一：它是万维网、文件传输协议网站、网络新闻组以及你自己计算机文件的窗口。为专业目的有效使用互联网需要了解搜索万维网的最佳策略、确保安全数据传输的机制，以及包括期刊、教科书、医学门户网站和提供高质量患者信息的网站在内的在线资源汇编。本文总结了这些资源，可作为可下载的“收藏夹”或“书签”从www.jnnp.com纳入你的网络浏览器，在该网站上还有指向推荐网站的免费访问超文本链接。
