So I started looking around for a framework that would force me to be more structured. Ultimately I am planning to use this blog to keep a diary of my research. And when you do research you think of many different subjects all floating around without any solid ties to anything, but you have some idea how they might relate to other things. Writing down a sentence does not capture that soft relationship. One needs to be forced to write down all the details, so that it can be used later.
Finally 2 days ago I found something that might work: Structured Blogging plugin for Wordpress. From now on I am planning to move onto the templates for structured blogging plugin. They provide a template and force you to fill in required information. When you edit, the underlying data is well structured. The diary format turns into a database format, that can be maintained. Dividing the usefull information into bins helps a lot. When displayed it looks like a single coherent post but in the background it is a collection of sub data structures.
I will try to use it as much as possible in the future. I will post an update how things go.

Clustering Software
- gCluto : I started testing it. It has a simple but nice data management tool set, clustering selector and a graph viewer.

General Resources
Nucleic Acids Research Database Lists contains links to many databases related to genomic data. Excellent resource.
Antimicrobial Peptides
Antiinfective Peptides Laboratory (Trieste, Italy)
Synthetic Antimicrobial Peptide Database
Antimicrobial Peptide Database from University of Nebraska Medical Center
Antimicrobial Sequences ANTIMIC
OpenCourseWare Finder
Rollyo: Roll Your Own Search Engine
It outputs HTML/TEX/or JPEG so that the data and equations are reusable.

Today I am studying different type of helices. Found an interestingly simple and clear explanation of all the molecular structures.
For years I thought the primary, secondary, tertiary and quaretenery structures explain everything. Apparantly there other intermediate structure like domains. Interesting reading.
I am planning to change this post regularly to capture links. I might
add them to the comments and then incorporate them into categories in
the post. The categories might change and I might need to incorporate a
different format at some point, but for now it should be enough. Please
add usefull sites into the comments and please add some detail what
that link is for.
