Citation Bookmarking Tools
Introduction
This presentation focuses on three academic citation bookmarking services, Zotero, CiteULike, and Connotea. All three are available at no cost, and each goes beyond spitting citations out into a style guide format. I won't go into great detail on how to use each service - that would take too long, and each service has its own instructions, FAQs and video (although the documentation and user community for Zotero is superior).
Research is multi-format and collaborative and annotative, and our research tools need to be able to be integrated more into our full research experience. They also need to be able to work well with each other - if I work with Zotero and my co-author works with EndNote, that can't be a barrier, and in fact it isn't.
Note: The audio on this is not good! I guess I shouldn't have converted it into flash before uploading it to Blip.tv...live and learn!
