Jean-Claude Bradley presents at the American Chemical Society meeting on August 20, 2012.  Examples are first presented to demonstrate how access to Open Notebooks can provide critical information not usually shared in the traditional publication process.  The use of Google App Scripts to look up chemical properties allows for the use of Google Spreadsheets as a self-contained dashboard to plan and analyze chemical reactions.  The concept of the Open Chemical Property Matrix (OCPM) is introduced and a smartphone app to suggest recrystallization solvents is then presented.
