A while ago I started managing my bookmarks (those that are suitable for the public, mind you) with
del.icio.us. I really like it, and I'd like to also put it to use for the bibliography for my masters thesis, but del.icio.us has a big drawback for that: It doesn't seem to support any electronic bibliography formats like e.g. BibTeX.
Furthermore, scientific publications have some more metadata (like the author) one would like to have searchable, and not in the regular tags please (if you think it should be in the tags, please tell me why.)
There are indeed alternatives focusing on scientific publications, and - as with all great ideas and their good follow-ons - even more than one. Even though choise is great in principle, I'm not too happy about this as for social software, you want to have
network effects and the spread of users over several sites hurts for that matter.
And I have to decide: Do I stay with del.icio.us and it's large user base, even though it has no support for citation software? (maybe abuse the the description field for BibTex data). Or switch to a more scientifically oriented service? And which to chosse? I know of
Connotea,
BibSonomy and
CiteULike. Any recommendations?

Sowas finde ich ne sehr umwelt freundliche Lösung. Das sollte publiker gemacht werden.
