RESUMO
With recent advancement of civilization, man has been inventing various tools to assist him in living in the changed environment. Online Medical Education System has now become reality. Developing and maintaining website of Department of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology by every medical college is the need of the hour. Developing and maintaining a website is not a difficult task for any department irrespective of the status of the institution. The financial burden is not very much. What makes this task so difficult is the lack of knowledge in this area rather than hurdles on the way. Authors have tried to clarify the various doubts regarding this area i.e. how the website can be developed, the financial burden to register a website, website maintainence, role of on-line medical education, undergraduate and postgraduate students benefits by the website, website use to associate different departments and institutions, obtaining updated information via Internet and other websites, the security issues while sharing the information as well as updating. It is envisaged that whence the departments develop their website, they may be affiliated to IAFM website for their greater visibility.
