Abstract
The physiotherapy profession has embraced computer-mediated communication (CMC) through its widespread use of electronic mail, WWW and other Internet resources. PHYSIO, the UK mailbase for the profession gives physiotherapists a global email discussion list and easy access to the WWW. Through email, physiotherapists worldwide can discuss a variety of issues of interest to the profession. Access to the WWW is provided through the Mailbase Hypermail archives using a unique service entitled 'Heather's Hyperlinks', whereby an email message listing sites relevant to physiotherapy is stored in the archives, where the URLs become live clickable links.
