New to Me

One site that is new to me this week is Connotea. This site is designed for scientists or clinicians, however it is free and easy to use. As you perform research you can click on the button in your browser (similar to del.icio.us) and it automatically saves your references. You can also add tags for easy retrieval. References can be public or private, emailed to certain colleagues, and of course, are available on any computer with Internet access. Connotea will also save links to any webpage, however, the most bibliographic data will be available when using sites like PubMed or Amazon.

Will I use it? In my other class this semester, we are preparing to do a group project. I think this would be a great tool to be able to share our research and easily access the references we've used.
