How the Pieces are coming Together
Information Design | Information Technology | Knowledge Management | Knowledge Management | Taxonomy | tools | Usability | automation | Categories | Classification | Context | Data Scraping | Indispensable Tools | Information Extraction | Metadata | Personalized Knowledge Management | PKM | Research Process | scraping | SearchSo, I have decided to stop whining about how the tools 'just are not there' or 'just have so many shortcomings'.
From now onward, I am building a system - a dependable (ok, ill settle for pretty reliable and mostly stable) environment within which tailored workflows can be semi-automated to the best of my ability, and to the furthest extent possible with the available tools...

svelte new zotero kicks rumply old RefMan's butt
Information Science | Knowledge Management | Human Computer Interaction | Bibliography | Browser integration | Data Scraping | Indispensable Tools | MetadataWow.
I just remembered I have Zotero installed.
I had deactivated it because it was interfering with my RIS harvesting into Reference Manager 11 (RefMan).
I would love to compare the efficacy of retrofitting crappy Google Scholar RIS using cut-and-paste methodology from more fully indexed sources; vs. ignoring the RIS import altogether and getting Zotero to scrape it all for you.
I cant do that if Zotero gobbles up all my RIS files...So i figgured out how to make Zotero leave them alone.
