myExperiment: a repository and social network for the sharing of bioinformatics workflows.

myExperiment (http://www.myexperiment.org) is an online research environment that supports the social sharing of bioinformatics workflows.

BioCatalogue: a universal catalogue of web services for the life sciences.

The use of Web Services to enable programmatic access to on-line bioinformatics is becoming increasingly important in the Life Sciences. However, their number, distribution and the variable quality of their documentation can make their discovery and subsequent use difficult. A Web Services registry with information on available services will help to bring together service providers and their users.
