Regarding to my previous blog post, CiteULike API, it seems I have not surfed the web enough to learn that there is so good reference management system (RMS) called Mendeley. Now I am kinda give up CiteULike for good.
Mendeley provides both online and desktop version. The desktop synchronises with the online references. Here you need to have a user account. The service is free under 500MB storage. The storage is for PDFs if you would like to attach it in your library. You can import most famous RMSs into Mendeley. Your PDFs are synced to every computer you install the desktop software with your account. It downloads your entire library to the local machine. Another great feature is it can scan PDFs on your machine and search fora suitable reference in its online database. Local search is fast, way faster than online RMSs for certain.
Thus far, Mendeley is my personal best RMS choice.
