Integration with word
First, congratulations on this great looking and promising app. I really like the basic setup. I do have two 'issues'.
First, after moving my refs from www.citeulike.org to Zotero, I got a lot of empty fields just hanging around. Other than that the import when rather smoothly. It just a pity I cannot quickly link the papers in my local library to Zotero.
Second, CiteUlike intregtes with word easier (or should I say, citeulike makes it less hard). Each reference can be exported to endnote, which then can be used to reference in word. If I do this with Zotero I need press a few more buttons, and save the file, and then import it again in Endnote. Is it possible to add a button (that can be set somewhere in your preferences), that skips most steps, and directly export a file such that Endnote or Reference Manager recognize it and I can add the the ref to my library? (So in citeulike I press the orange Endnote button, and Endnote start up and asks to which library I want to add the reference; it's not perfect but it works). I understand from your future plans that you want to create some sort of integration with word. That would be great. Untill that time, I hope you smooth things with Endnote or Reference manager.
I look forward to your future releases!

seanThanks for trying Zotero. Our Word integration does not involve the use of EndNote. You will be able to import citations and bibliographies directly from Zotero.

joepartsThanks Sean. I really look forward to Zotero's own word integration. However for now, it somewhat limits the direct usability of zotero. Anyways, I am probably too impatient. Zotero looks very promising. I will keep my eye on its developments. Thanks!
