    Perhaps you will be pleasantly unsurprised to learn that the author Toby Segaran has been the Director of Software Development at Genstruct an AI based biotech.

    I didn't know. Funny thing is that I gave a presentation on biosimulation companies just last week which included a mention of GeneStruct and their methodology :)

    Hi Deepak, I agree whole heartedly with simple APIs. SOAP-and-WSDL seem inappropriate for a lot of bioinformatics. This O'Reilly book on REST is a great howto, been passing it around the lab here, its a good read if you're into that sort of thing. Cheers. Duncan

    The RESTful book, which Andrew Walkingshaw recommended to me, happens to be sitting just inches away :). It's a must read actually if you're even remotely into that sort of thing.
