    I see advice is offered by McKay

    One of the things that I would like to emphasize is the use of the computer and the web today (Internet). I was giving a talk recently and several people come up to me and said: how do you manage to make these astonishing connections between things? Well, it’s not that difficult, really. You have immense resources available on the web, and they grow all the time, and what happened to me, one of the connections I made, was after having got knocked down by a car, maybe again because I was thinking too much about problems. I was in bed for two months, and I just searched on the web for phrases in papers, and providing there are not more than a 100 or so papers you can actually go through these papers and see where they are relevant to your interests; a very effective and quite successful way of finding things.

    and

    With the growth of blogs, especially in mathematics, there are several emergent sites which are useful [Blog>]. However, it would be useful to consolidate these resources, collect comments and have them maintained professionally; much in the spirit of the PolyMath projects [PolyMath>]

    “Blog>” refers to sites including the nLab.
