The last time ACS met in Boston, a HIST symposium organized by Harry Pence took a look at history of chemistry sources on the worldwide web. Five years later, the internet has changed a great deal, both in form and content. New digital media include blogs, wikis, podcasts, and video. History of chemistry content on traditional websites and in vast electronic databases of manuscripts, articles, books, and patents has expanded greatly. This presentation is a selective tour of history of chemistry resources on the internet in 2007.
