The purpose of this entry is to allow the community to <strong style="font-weight: bold;">ask questions</strong> on the use of genomics resources. <strong style="font-weight: bold;">Think of us as a virtual help desk. </strong>If you have a question about how to access a certain kind of data, or how to use a database, or what kind of resources there are for your particular research problem, just ask in the comments. OpenHelix staff will keep watch on the comment threads and answer those questions to the best of our knowledge. Additionally, <strong style="font-weight: bold;">we encourage readers to answer questions in the comments too.</strong> If you know the answer to another reader’s question, please chime in! The “WYP” thread will be posted every Thursday and remain at the top of the blog for 24 hours. <strong style="font-weight: bold;">Questions or problems asked on Thursday will be answered on Thursday to the best of our ability. You can leave questions on other days of the week, but the answer might not come that day.</strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">We&#8217;d also like to invite resource providers to let us know if they have something new to talk about, or something they want to mention to the bioinformatics community.  We&#8217;ve had some people email us because they weren&#8217;t sure if they should post something, and we want to say that&#8217;s fine. </span></p>

But this week we are off for the holiday, and won&#8217;t be taking questions.</p>
<p>But we&#8217;d like to open the floor to people who are creating tools and who might want to post about them.  Tell us about your project, what the goals are, and how to find the software you are developing.</p>
<p>We&#8217;d like to thank the software teams, curators, project leads and funding agencies that have been working for years to bring us terrific tools and resources that are advancing biomedical research. We appreciate your work.  Wishing you all a happy Thanksgiving!</p>

The purpose of this entry is to allow the community to <strong style="font-weight: bold;">ask questions</strong> on the use of genomics resources. <strong style="font-weight: bold;">Think of us as a virtual help desk. </strong>If you have a question about how to access a certain kind of data, or how to use a database, or what kind of resources there are for your particular research problem, just ask in the comments. OpenHelix staff will keep watch on the comment threads and answer those questions to the best of our knowledge. Additionally, <strong style="font-weight: bold;">we encourage readers to answer questions in the comments too.</strong> If you know the answer to another reader’s question, please chime in! The “WYP” thread will be posted every Thursday and remain at the top of the blog for 24 hours. <strong style="font-weight: bold;">Questions or problems asked on Thursday will be answered on Thursday to the best of our ability. You can leave questions on other days of the week, but the answer might not come that day.</strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">We&#8217;d also like to invite resource providers to let us know if they have something new to talk about, or something they want to mention to the bioinformatics community.  We&#8217;ve had some people email us because they weren&#8217;t sure if they should post something, and we want to say that&#8217;s fine. </span></p>
