RSS. Quit clicking your bookmarks and go get an RSS aggregator. Don’t ask me how or why you just go figure it out. If C-Lo can check 600 blogs every damn day (thanks for the j/k tip), you could easily hit 50 journals. No I’m not kidding, if your relying on lifting stacks of paper bound by glue for inspiration then your only using 10% of your brain! Oh and Elsevier subscription only RSS sux. Plz fix ktx.
The journals I pretend to read are sindicated in the sidebar, here, and of course there’s a feed
.
Smiles. Today smiles are here to copy and paste structures from the web, period. So Sorry. If your not using firefox, umm start using firefox. Yes even at work – there’s a portable app. If you’re already on FF then you can right click an image -> click properties -> alt text: copy the smiles and paste into chemdraw, isis, etc.
Searching. I search the USPTO here (leave off the US in the number its updated ~6am est Thursday), and the WIPO here (updated thursdays when they get around to it), the PDB here (updated Tuesday, usually around 4pm est [advanced search->Ligand->smiles 4tw]) the US clinic here, and EU clinic here.
