Zotero

Bibliography issues are difficult. Particularly when working with others who do not use openoffice. Zotero 2.0 is now out, and useful. I’ve installed it today on the work ‘puter and the home ‘puter.

What’s good.
1. Plugins to open office work.
2. I can sync bibliographies
3. Imports my old Bibtex files
4. Has the most common citation systems up and working.

What’s bad…
The word processor plugin that is cross compatible requires you save in .doc format. The open office only version is NOT cross compatable. As most medical editors require word, this is an issue.

Best advantage — is a firefox plug in and is a free firefox plugin.

We don’t need endnote no more.
