Okay, let’s work through an example…

First of all…register yourself here:

http://www.chemspider.com/controls/Login/RegForm.aspx

and request to be a “Depositor”

Now let’s take an example…
http://scienceblogs.com/moleculeoftheday/2008/03/butyric_acid_yarr_she_makes_a.php

Go to http://www.chemspider.com/Search.aspx and type in butyric acid.

For this one you will find two structures. Click on the structure of interest…the acid not the anion. When you get here you will see this on the page…(part of it)

See that “Add URLs” statement…click on it.

You will get:

In the TOP box enter the TITLE for the URL…I do it as follows:

Molecule of the Day Article: TITLE OF ARTICLE

So for this example:
Molecule of the Day Article: Butyric Acid (Yarr, she makes a fine stink bomb)

In the box below (bottom box), enter the URL: http://scienceblogs.com/moleculeoftheday/2008/03/butyric_acid_yarr_she_makes_a.php

And click OK…
That’s it…
Try it…

I used to put INCHI codes into the alt tag, until people started telling me this was the wrong way to do this, the online INCHI converter didn’t work very well, and I just got sick of figuring it out.

If there’s a really easy way to participate in this semantic web stuff I’m glad to. If it genuinely adds less than a minute to my day, I’m there. It’s got to work every time, though, and I got sick of hearing I was doing it wrong.

Sorry to sound irritated, none of this is your fault and I understand this tech takes off slowly. I’d appreciate any information on where exactly the state of the art lies.
