From in-depth experience I completely concur with your bullet points, they are all valid (spot on really), and in some cases huge blockers for larger scale adoption. I've had plenty of existential angst regarding the amount of time I&#

Curious, coming from a user named 'glofish' that they are unaware of GOs pervasiveness in the zebrafish model organsim world. GO is everywhere in the genomics/model organism world, and only growing in use. Also funny that the

You're right, there are a lot of academics that like the idea of a semantic web, it rings true to a lot of scientific principles. There are also a lot of ideas and far fewer day-to-day applications. Science ticks a long a lot slower th
