Use of zotero with delicious, diigo, etc.
There are many super-bookmarking tools out there. I'm loving diigo at the moment, which allows addition of comments and highlighting, as well as tagging, straight bookmarking (along with community features).
Lots of overlap with zotero here. How could these be united? Will next generation zotero do everything diigo does, and more? Could zotero latch on to these existing and well polished web page bookmarking applications, adding its expertise in deciphering peer reviewed research?
Importing del.icio.us and other bookmarks is one thing: keeping them in sync would be better. Diigo publishes my new links to del.icio.us, adding additional diigo-only information to the delicious entry. Could zotero publish some or all of each new entry to such a service?

in diigo:
add the tag "zotero" - you can then manually (?automatically) ask zotero to check whether it has already added "zotero" tagged items. It can also pull down comments into zotero notes, sync the other tags, and add a link back to the diigo page.
in zotero:
add the tag "diigo" This would cause a new diigo bookmark to be created, including addition of annotations from zotero notes.
the difficulty would be in keeping track of which note in zotero corresponds to which annotation. A one-off copy would not be very good. Maybe include a unique code with each note (ugly), or use a fuzzy match so updated annotations are recognized, providing they have at least a few words in common.
current front-runner is Pinboard located at www.pinboard.in
the have an api that's modeled after the v1 delicious api (see http://pinboard.in/howto/#api) so it should be easy to support it.
@bdarcus: that's also my most prominent use case. sounds good!
