Google will help on scientific data management

In biology/medicine, there are lots of data need to well annotated rather than only providing storage. It would be better if Google could integration it with semantic web technology.

In bioinformatics field, there are many emerging new database to collect data set or molecules annotation , i.e. database on DNA methylation, microRNAs etc. At least, we can publish a new database using Google Base right now. We can avoid waster time on writing code for search and user interface using the search engine of GOOGLE BASE.
