The reason why I have not been able to blog much lately, is that my family and I have been moving to Uppsala/Sweden, where I'll start a postdoc in the group of Jarl Wikberg @ BMC @ Uppsala University, where I'll work on chemoinformatics in drug design, and the use of CDK and Bioclipse in particular.

More blogging when I have more frequent internet access again...

FriendFeed is a nice aggregation service allowing discussion of items posted from delicious, blogs, and any other RSS-based feed.(e.g. my feed. It also has a room concept, where people can post stuff around a topic, such as a conference such as Science Blogging 2008 London, or the CDK:

I have associated the RSS feed of the CDK bug tracker, the CDK News ASAP, and will shortly add the commits messages feed.

Christoph pointed me to a video on Git by Linus. CDK is now using branches extensively in development, and just set up a branch for the upcoming 1.2.0 release later this year (end of October, see cdk-1.2.x). Christoph has just reviewed the branch containing the API move to Iterable.

Now, the DOI ubiquity scripts I just blogged about, was just the beginning of things. Me exploring the environment and learning the JavaScript language.

I start to become really interesting when we use these technologies to improve things. I am still not sure people will like the command line nature, but at least I will be a happy user.

Now, I'm really after something else, but here's my first Ubiquity scripts. It allow you to select a DOI on any web page (which really only makes sense if it is not already a hyperlink), you hit ALT-SPACE (Linux), CTRL-SPACE (Windows), or whatever the shortcut is on your operating system, and type resolve-doi and it will automatically convert the DOI into a hyperlink to look up the paper.

This blog deals with chemblaics in the broader sense. Chemblaics (pronounced chem-bla-ics) is the science that uses computers to solve problems in chemistry, biochemistry and related fields. The big difference between chemblaics and areas such as chem(o)?informatics, chemometrics, computational chemistry, etc, is that chemblaics only uses open source software, open data, and open standards, making experimental results reproducible and validatable. And this is a big difference!
