Zotero - The Next-Generation Research Tool: "Zotero [zoh-TAIR-oh] is a free, easy-to-use Firefox extension to help you collect, manage, and cite your research sources. It lives right where you do your work — in the web browser itself."
It's been a while since I used it - but I'd forgotten how useful this free little tool is if you're using Firefox or Flock as your main browser. If you're not sure if it's something you might like - take a look at the Demo and see the stuff it can do. Very cool! Obviously, that's 'geekily cool'... but still...
Oh, and relating this to VLEs and all that good stuff for a second - if the VLE Wizard is taking requests today - please could you integrate a referencing tool into it which could be used in a similar way to Zotero? No? A list of reasons why it's not possible or desirable? Ho hum... back to my normal pick an' mix of the best tools the web can offer, rather than your typical 'basic, bodged together, bunged out there' style VLE...
