ACCRI (Anesthesia and Critical Care Resources on the Internet) is the largest and by far the most complete listing of Internet resources for anaesthetists. All the links are maintained in a searchable database, though you can browse also. Since virtually all the known internet anaesthesia resources are listed in ACCRI, I suggest going there if you are searching for a particular society or department. If you ever need the full contents of the ACCRI database e-mailed to you (beware, it's a VERY big file!), send a blank email message to accri@gasnet.med.yale.edu. Or just click here!
If you are more interested in browsing to 'see what's available', Keith Ruskin's GasNet and Virtual Library (both mirrored at the University of Rotterdam) remain useful. Other excellent sites include Gary Malet's substantial and extremely well organised listing of general medical and anaesthesia information in the Medical Matrix site, the Hardin Anesthesia MetaDirectory, Paul Ting's anaesthesiology section at MiningCo, Martingdale's Medical and Surgical - Anesthesiology Centre (with 170k of links to all kinds of medical and non-medical sites), AnesthesiaWeb, hosted by Roche, which contains links to Duke University's educational material (free subscription required), and Anesthesiology Village, a Hewlett-Packard sponsored site with case studies, conferences and links. John Oyston's Anaesthetist's Home Page is a useful starting point for medicine related searches and Piet Beckaert's Anaesthesia International is particularly useful for anaesthesia providers in developing countries.
InVivo is a large French language site.
E-Medicine is a comprehensive free on-line textbook of emergency medicine.
Several sites stand out as 'reference' sites for certain geographic areas, and their significant local content makes them worthwhile places to visit:
Asia - Singapore Anaesthesia Web
Australia - Australasian
Anaesthesia, University of
Queensland
Canada - Ottawa
General
Europe - Dutch Anesthesia Corner , ACCRI, InVivo (France, French language), Spain (en Español), Greek Society of Anaesthetists
USA - Gasnet
At last the The International Anesthesia Calendar List is here. This is an attempt to use advanced database technology to allow conference organisers to remotely post their meetings into a database that anyone can browse or search. Please use this whenever possible. I hope it will remove the need to check each of the small lists below:

There's only one place to find out all about them: the ACCRI Discussion Groups List . This is a complete listing of all the e-mail discussion lists that have relevance to anaesthesia. Make sure that when you subscribe you save a copy of the help document that you get - it can be very useful later on!
Subscribe to David Crippen's CCM-L and Keith Ruskin's GasNet Anesthesiology list. Here's some information about spammers (uninvited junk-mail).
Discussion archives are available for GasNet.
BioMedNet are involved in Critical Care discussion groups and Journals, and there is a web based discussion group for UK anaesthetists.
UseNet News Groups are an alternative way of becoming involved in anaesthesia discussions on the internet. A specific newsreading application is preferable (Simon Fraser's MT-Newswatcher on the Mac), though it is possible to use Netscape's internal news reader.
Stephen Barasch <sbara@gate.net> has developed an anaesthesiology related set of News Groups. To access Dr. Barasch's Anaesthesia News server, configure your news reader to host 24.96.62.70 and leave your userid and password fields blank. After logon, please read the group anes.announcements for introductory information.
Discussions from the major anaesthesia related e-mail groups are echoed here. If you dislike getting e-mail from all the lists all the time, think about unsubscribing from them, and instead checking them periodically via the News Group system. Remember that if you reply to a News Group posting, your reply will only appear in the News Group system (you can send a copy to the original poster by e-mail) - it will not appear in the main e-mail discussion list at all. The best way around this is to send your reply to the correct mail list server by e-mail, and it will ultimately be echoed in the News Group; so long as you keep the subject line unchanged, your posting will be threaded correctly, and readers of both systems will

Journals, Newsletters and Abstract Pages
Without a doubt the most comprehensive listing is the MedWeb at Emory, which lists every medical journal on the Web and is the best general place to start from.

Many html editors exist, ranging from simple shareware to expensive professional site management applications.
Before you write any pages have a look at the Yale Style Manual and review Health on the Net.
Link checking is made easy with Big Brother (Mac) or RxHTML (PC)
Have a look at the Telemedicine Information Exchange for information about videoconferencing and telemedicine issues.

For Bibliographic software, look at EndNote.
Shareware, demo and free Mac software is best found (and easily downloaded) from the Info-Mac Archives. You will need one of the Stuffit family of products from Aladdin for uncompressing files.Get John Norstad's Newswatcher (or the later 'YNA Newswatcher) as your news group reader, Fetch for ftp, and either NCSA Telnet or Black Night for telnet applications.
