A Useful guide to the Iranian ney can be found at Kees van den Doel's page.

For the Arabic nay check out Majed Mikhail's page.

As for the Turkish nay there are two good websites: Heruka's webpage and Yücel Müsik's Ney Producing Center where you can find an amazing method to learn the Turkish (and the Arabic) way of blowing in the nay, as well as a huge database of music samples of nay players, music sheet, list of maqams in the Turkish system, etc.

Another interesting link is Neyneva, a Turkish website with nice musical sample of Turkish nay playing and informative links about the intrument. There are musical forums listed there but they are in Turkish and so I am in the process of learning the language. Neyneva is also a nay manufacturer.

You can check out this website on maqamat in the Arabic tradition. And here is a link on the Dastgah system (Iranian music tradition)
