Abstract
The rise in Internet access has a number of implications for surgeons, both in terms of their personal use of information and in the accessibility of surgical information to their hospitals and patients. This article outlines some of the opportunities offered by the development of new ways to access information, and suggests that the ability to use the new technologies is now becoming an essential clinical skill.
