interface look
hi,
i like Zotero a lot, however its interface is still a bit odd and not very friendly. I know another software with an interface which is much more friendly and much better looking (to my taste) and if you add some features of it to Zotero it would be just great! The software i refer to, as the better looking, is BidDesk (http://bibdesk.sourceforge.net/). For example, Bibdesk has a panel to preview a short summary of the bibliography records while Zotero hasn't anything similar, or similar and good looking. Search, keywords, and distribution of panels is as well better in Bibdesk. Just take a look at it if you like and get ideas. You are in the right track and I like a lot Zotero despite my comments.
A stand alone application (not within Firefox) for Offline bib management is as well something I miss.
Greetings!

Never really used it, but it looks really good!
