Research Buddy Description

Research Buddy - Firefox add-on that allows you to save references to webpages in a bibliographical reference format. Research is a dreary, dismal task, characterized by monotonous reading and constantly scribbling down where appropriate sources are found. It would be really helpful to have a secretary that noted all the interesting papers a student read, remembering the important paragraphs from each one, and putting the citations into appropriate format, ready to use in the research paper that will earn the student a Nobel Prize (or Turing Award, if you're lucky).But wait! There is such a secretary! Starting on December 8th of 2004, there is Research Buddy, a Firefox plugin that does exactly this (and much, much more)! You can arrange your citations in different topics, manage those topics, specify the format of the citation, and anything else your little heart desires. Isn't the internet great? Research Buddy extension is designed to be used in the following way:· The user finds a quote on a webpage and wants to reference the quote in her paper.·The user selects the text of this quote, and, in the right-click menu, selects "Research Buddy" (this step is optional: the page can be referenced without selected text).· The plugin opens the main Research Buddy dialog, which allows the user to select which research topic the page should be filed under.· The user clicks on "Add to selected topic", and the reference is saved to the topic. Depending on the preferences, the page (and it's images) may be saved to the user's disk.Research Buddy extension allows you to save your references to webpages in a bibliographical reference format.Requirements:· Firefox 0.7 - 1.10
