"The best bibliography tool around at the moment"
Version: Zotero 1.07
Pros
Zotero is the best bibliography tool around, much more functional than the non-free competitors. Importing bibliographical info from journal web-sites is extremely easy and works very well.
Cons
Creating your own citation styles can be tricky
Summary
Installing Zotero is really easy, importing references from web-resources works surprisingly well. Integration with MS Word and Openoffice is flawless. The available tools for editing your own styles are still very basic, although there are quite a few styles available on the program website.

"Excellent! Perfect compliment to online research."
Version: Zotero 1.07
Pros
Zotero gets all the information I used to take down by hand, or by copy and paste and organizes it much better than I could ever do manually.
Cons
I may not have figured out how to do this yet, but if I could choose the style or format in either APA, MLA or Turabian.

"excellent - no student should work without this"
Version: Zotero 1.07
Pros
This is exactly what I have been looking for for a long time now - and it's FREE!!!!
I'm currently writing my thesis and this program saves me a lot of time and tiresome work!

"Looks good, but web-install only is bad."
Version: Zotero 1.07
Pros
Functionality looks great.
Cons
Don't like the network install. (You can download the XPI file from zotero.org. It's a bit of a trip to get there via the links.

"Best Outliner software I have used..."
Version: Zotero 1.07
Pros
and I have tried a bunch. I use it a lot for recipes. You can link related recipe together. For instance, a cake recipe and icing recipe. Or a meat recipe and a sauce for it.
Cons
Only for Firefox.

"Easy and free"
Version: Zotero 1.07
Pros
I like how it zips biblio info into your Zotero library with one click. It allows you to organize your websites and web documents into folders. It saves time and you can mark up your documents, type notes, etc. You can even download book info from Amazon.com - you should take time to learn from Zotero's website ... they have tutorials and a help forum.
Cons
There are a few bugs where the cite while you write feature doesn't quite do the citation style I need, but I just manually fix it. I also have to fix some bugs in the bibliography/references list, but still I think it saves me time overall.
