Random thought, but I wonder if Google Docs could be useful?

For the first hand material, I was leaning towards simply using google docs or google sites and leaving it private to the two of us. Then we can use Zotero to tag and annotate those materials so that

zotero integration with google docs would be very nice. I use google docs to write papers in collaboration and putting the citations is always a problem.

I'm in the process of moving a large portion of my reference materials to Google Docs, so that I won't be bound by the size of the USB drive on the road. This lead me to think how wonderful it would

Say that you're collaborating with someone on a document, you've got the master doc in OpenOffice.org, but are working on smaller parts of it in Google Docs with someone else because it's just so grea

Drag and drop works fine with Google Docs for me (Linux, Firefox 3.6.9, Zotero 2.0 dev xpi).

This was likely due to a change on Google Docs—the text area is probably no longer a real text area. (I believe other people have reported this, so I'm not sure this is a particularly new problem.)

docs and pdfs without text-layer or with failed metadata retrieval: manually create items (or use database like google scholar for that purpose), then drag the file to that item.

With the appearance of standalone implementations of CSL, it's likely that we'll eventually start seeing CSL-generated documents online, through authoring plugins to Wordpress, Google Docs, Wave or th

+1 for getting RDFa support into Zotero. It makes sense given recent moves by Facebook, which is inevitably going to result in more RDFa out there on the web in places like IMDB, Time, etc.
