Just my 2 cents: For what it is worth (and I am jumping into this conversation late) - as a Conotea user and a Zotero user and a blogger --- I think integration with Zotero in whatever ways make sense is a good idea, because Zotero is just very solid software with a simple API that is just easy to work with. For example there is now a pair of wordpress plugins - one that culls metadata into various standard formats (dublin core, rss, 3 or 4 others) and another that makes that exposed metadata available to Zotero, making any webpage so enabled add-able to Zotero with one click on the Zotero icon in the URL bar. The pair of plugins are: *COinS Metadata Exposer* (from the Zotero folks) who have a number of interesting plugins and projects: http://www.zotero.org/documentation/plugins and, *unAPI Server* - http://www.lackoftalent.org/michael/blog/unapi-wordpress-plug-in/ See them in operation (if you have Zotero installed in your browser) on any page of the War on Docs/Pain Crisis blog: http://doctordeluca.com/wordpress/ Just click on the "unapi" link under the title to examine the exposed metadata in the various formats. And look up if you have Zotero installed, and you'll be able to add the page to Zotero with one click via the Zotero icon in the URL bar. Nothing fancy, but a good demo of a concept, imo. These are very simple plugins - and they just work. I love a lot about Conotea (though I've been overwhelmed with life lately and have not been contributing much) and ditto Endnote and ditto Zotero. It's like having bees live in your head, so I'll leave it to you pros to figure it all out. But I think the "semantic web" or whatever buzz word you prefer is important - integration is important. But more and more, I find myself using Zotero to grab stuff, especially when i'm in a hurry - 'cause it's just there on my browser. And I use the connotea plugins too, but more and more, if I only have time to do one thing, I do Zotero and hope/trust I can get my data into conotea or endnote eventually. So yeah, I think Zotero is important for Conotea -- but I am way not an expert in this area. Thanks Martin and your team for sticking with the project, and continually improving the product - surely it is a labor of love. Sincerely, ..alex... doc...@gm...
