heheh...Yes, I suppose the internet was a useful tool for accessing data long before browsers showed up on folks PC's. And forget the web...modems and company bbs's were fine long before the Wall Street internut malarkey started up. That Curagen would use the web to draw attention in their PR is curious. But maybe I should not be so cynical... "Genomics Portal", nice touch--An AGCT for effort. Still, all kidding aside, what would be really cool is if somebody who is actually informed about such things came to the thread and talked about how their lab loves Pangea or Gene Logic or Incyte or or (gasp) Celera...or Curagen's software tools-- which make geonomic database mining a snip, er, snap! My totally uninformed guess is that it doesn't matter because turning most SNP data into dollars is a few years away...and for the time being the best play is with the companies with the most gene patents themselves. That said...I didn't get any reading done during my week in the Tetons, so what I should really do is 1. Shut the hell up and finish that Gene Wars book 2. Sift through all the Steve Push notes on the GLGC yahoo thread 3. Go back and re-read this thread 4. Throw a few intelligent questions by Rocketman 5. Report back with a more meaningful post in a week.
