That edubloggers links feed has already paid off a number of times – this morning Alan furl’d this new site, in essence del.icio.us for academic citations.
So what not simply use del.icio.us instead. Well you probably could, but the advantages seem to be:
– the “most active” tags that have currently emerged come much more from the world of scholarly jargon (jargon’s not always a bad thing, you know)
– a nice feature specific to academics, the site allows you to export your collection to either BibTeX or Endnote to help build a bibliography.
Will it take off? Who knows. It does offer RSS feeds on keywords; for instance, here’s one on self organization. – SWL
It also automatically imports citations from a variety of sources (this is a big deal to me) and will soon export citations to particular academic formats… the creator is apparently a big delicious fan as well…
Don’t give me much credit, I lifted the link from someone else’s blog. There is some sort of BTL syndrome (Blog Transmitted Link)
