 Internet research - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Before accepting Internet information as fact, it is a good idea to verify the source of the information.
Internet resources have similar (or "the same") information as print sources, but they generally do not simply reproduce print content.
Although books are nowadays produced using a digital version of the content, for most books such a version is not available on the Internet.

 Internet Society (ISOC) All About The Internet: History of the Internet
David D. Clark is Senior Research Scientist at the MIT Laboratory for Computer Science.
Thus, by 1985, Internet was already well established as a technology supporting a broad community of researchers and developers, and was beginning to be used by other communities for daily computer communications.
Internet was based on the idea that there would be multiple independent networks of rather arbitrary design, beginning with the ARPANET as the pioneering packet switching network, but soon to include packet satellite networks, ground-based packet radio networks and other networks.

 Internet Research Ethics
Academic research ideally endeavours to reflect the range and versatility of the media that it considers and we should avoid any unintentional erasure of minority groups in research that might result from considering their textual output as private social interaction.
In these paradigms the role of the researcher is to uncover the 'truth' of the object of study.
There is a need for an acknowledgement of the textuality of the Internet, with Internet technologies now being used to publish texts produced in a complex convergence of written text and audio/visual media.

 Coomber: Using the Internet for Survey Research
Other problems relating to doing research via the Internet and the WWW, at this stage of its development and in relation to the sociological research community, revolve around how actually to go about doing it and what issues need to be considered when undertaking such research.
Whilst researching particular types of Internet users as Internet users modify the sampling problem away from a concern with the representativeness of general populations, research not concerned with Internet users as a group involves other issues.
For Boncheck et al, the data collected by means of the Internet can be considered useful indicative data upon which further research may build and information regarding the changing nature of political communication considered.

 Research On The Net - Using the Internet
Citing Internet Addresses If you are doing a lot of research on the Internet you might need to give a reference to an electronic source.
One of the most useful directories for serious researchers is The Argus Clearinghouse which "provides a central access point for value-added topical guides which identify, describe, and evaluate Internet-based information resources." and not forgetting the Internet Public Library, the first public library for the Internet community.
The Internet is a wonderful resource for researchers of all kinds, but like every other kind of research tool there are new skills to be learned and decisions to be made about how and when to use it.

 Conducting Research on the Internet
The Internet is not a library in which all its available items are identified and can be retrieved by a single catalog.
One of the most efficient ways of conducting research on the Internet is to use the World Wide Web.
On the Internet, a user has access to a wide variety of services: vast information sources, lectronic mail, file transfer, interest group membership, interactive collaboration, multimedia displays, and more.

 Legal Research Using the Internet
The Internet can augment an average law library's resources by providing alternate copies of print materials, and information that cannot be found in the law library in print or electronic format.
And remember that sometimes the fun stuff on the Internet is not only useful for taking a break in work, but also can help you become more efficient and familiar and comfortable with using resources on the Internet for legal research.
This tip is particularly valuable when using Internet listservs - you do not want to post to a list a request for information without asking people locally first if they have the information - it might make your institution or your colleagues look bad or look like they are not up to snuff.
