[DI] Online tools and resources

     Dear Colleagues:
     
     
     As part of our efforts in constructing the National Biological 
     Information Infrastructure (www.nbs.gov/nbii) we are interested in 
     identifying, testing, learning about, and pointing to publicly 
     available online tools that help people analyze and use biological 
     data. I wonder how many listed models are actually online.  In other 
     words, can people can run them online against online data (as opposed 
     to downloading them and appropriate data to their own respective 
     sites) to return various analytical results to their desktop 
     workstations.
     
     We currently are visiting, inventorying, and studying as many Web 
     sites as we can discover that offer online tools for biological 
     analyses.  Can you suggest any sites that we may examine and include 
     in our inventory? Again, please note the specific interest in online, 
     as opposed to downloadable, tools.
     
     Thanks for your time
