Interconnected tools to analyze genomes at multiple levels of resolution
Emphasis on exploring genomes as a biologist would an organism
General types of research questions:
I am interested in a group of organisms. . .
I am interested in a group of genes . . .
CoGe has tools to help answer questions in light of genome structure, dynamics, and evolution

First, anyone interested in comparing large genomes
CoGe can do large analyses, but depending on the size and complexity of the genomes, some analyses may take a while to run. However, CoGe caches the results of large analyses.

OrganismView: Find genomes and getting an overview of genomic data
Start with bacteria genomes: small and fast to process, easier to visualize comparisons.
