The quantity and complexity of the information to be found on the Internet makes anyone who has dared to navigate on the Net feel perplexed. To access the Net without a predetermined route to follow may prove to be a waste of time and very exasperating, as a tremendous amount of completely irrelevant information is discovered. The objective of this article is to give the reader of the REVISTA DE NEUROLOGIA an informative guide to help find useful information on the Net, and a classified list of potentially useful Internet addresses.
We have analyzed the concept of 'search tool', and the types and characteristics of these. Specific search tools (both English and Spanish) which are currently available, are considered. We have searched the Net using various tool (Yahoo, Lycos, Altavista, Trobador and Olé) to find relevant information for the terms 'neurosciences' and 'neurology', and to verify the relevant interest of the sites on the Net thus encountered.
We present the URL of 50 search tools and the 244 sites on the Net related to Neurology and the Neurosciences, classified according to the entity or group to which they correspond, and their ambit (Latin American/Spanish vs others). A short list of those which may be of most interest is also included.
互联网上可获取的信息量及复杂性让任何试图在网上浏览信息的人都感到困惑。如果没有预定的浏览路径就上网，可能会浪费时间且令人极为恼火，因为会发现大量完全不相关的信息。本文的目的是为《神经学杂志》的读者提供一份信息指南，以帮助他们在网上找到有用信息，并提供一份潜在有用的互联网地址分类列表。
我们分析了“搜索工具”的概念及其类型和特点。考虑了当前可用的特定搜索工具（包括英文和西班牙文的）。我们使用各种工具（雅虎、Lycos、Altavista、Trobador和Olé）在网上搜索，以查找与“神经科学”和“神经病学”相关的信息，并核实由此找到的网站的相关价值。
我们列出了50个搜索工具的网址以及网上244个与神经病学和神经科学相关的网站，这些网站根据它们所属的实体或团体以及其范围（拉丁美洲/西班牙地区与其他地区）进行了分类。还包括了一份可能最具价值的网站简短列表。
