blog: semantic dissonance in uniprot

FYI:
http://i9606.blogspot.com/2009/02/semantic-dissonance-in-uniprot.html

I thought that the above blog entry would interest some of you (it 
apparently already has interested a few of you that have added comments 
:) ). The blog is from Benjamin Good (from Mark Wilkinson's Lab) and was 
referenced during a napkin discussion I had with Marco Roos and Ben 
about how one could best refer to a protein in text-mined triples. One 
of the best options seemed to be to use a PURL that referred to a record 
associated with the protein. Sound familiar? Those of you who have been 
with us for more than a year will think so. See http://sharednames.org 
for an attempt to approach the issue.
