Abstract

The Internet has greatly expanded access to information about all types of drugs. Web sites devoted to psychedelic drugs are proliferating. These sites vary considerably in terms of the quality and objectivity of information, financial support (non-profit vs. commercial), ideological stance, and the identification of creators and maintainers. Representative sites are reviewed and assessed on criteria of credibility and quality.
