- jrwoodruff 17y agoYea, actually. it has potential. I'd like to see richer linking, i.e. give me the material safety data sheet and a laymans definition of toluene when I click on it, rather than the current 'chemical.' But that may be in the pipeline. Overall, though, it's facts nicely reorganized in a sensible and informative manner. That's moving in the right direction.
- btucker 17y agoThanks! (I'm one of the programmers) Yeah, that kind of stuff definitely is in the pipeline, as is just adding lots more data. We felt from the beginning that is was the linking between the datasets that was most interesting. Unfortunately, we found this much more challenging once we started trying to do it since there is surprisingly little standardization in how different agencies report things. Longer-term we're hoping to try to crowd source this kind of thing. So say you found the material safety data for toluene, you could link that up. Anyway, thanks for checking it out!
