ChemSpider has set up embeddable chemistry widget (per Cameron’s idea), much like YouTube. I just have to try that. Unlike YouTube, you need to be registered and logged in to use the functionality (I hope the requirement will be dropped):

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.chemspider.com/csjsapi.ashx?op=img&amp;tk=3d178e75-a272-4d60-8ca9-5b1183a0e746&amp;id=171&amp;w=120&amp;p=1&amp;eid=%22azijnzuur%22"></script>

There is an option to have ChemSpider link back to blog, and I will have to figure out how to enable Chemical blogspace to extract the InChI from the underlying JavaScripts.

Update: I noticed that the ChemSpider server was a bit sluggish this morning, and that loading my blog page halts at loading the JavaScript… Tony, I suggest to use some Ajax magic here, with a really fast JavaScript download (using an almost static bit of JavaScript), and then a Ajax to access to slower bits, which might involve image generation and database lookup.

Update2: the feature was already under development before Cameron asked about it.

Update3: the script is no longer working, and I made the code visible instead, for historic reasons.
