<p>I've just put on YouTube an introduction to FirstGlance in Jmol
(demonstration), along with my design goals, recorded in a Zoom
meeting last November hosted by BioMolViz.Org.</p>

<p>(or in the YouTube search slot, look for "firstglance biomolviz")</p>
<p>If you'd like to get the flavor of FirstGlance, and a bit of how
its forerunners (such as RasMol, PyMOL) inspired me, its in this
video. My goals are to make understanding the structure of a
macromolecule as easy as possible (NO command language, using
non-technical language with explanations of the technical terms,
etc.).</p>
<p>Its also super easy to generate a Powerpoint-ready video of any
molecular view you obtain in FirstGlance.</p>
<p>In Proteopedia, every page titled with a 4-character PDB entry
has a link to explore that model in FirstGlance. Thanks to Jaim
Prilusky and Joel Sussman for providing the server host for
FirstGlance!<br>
