However, the only constant is that I'm storing everything in BibTeX. For online articles that I'm interested in I put them into delicious with a single click from my Firefox delicious plugin. I tag the article with 'toread'. When I get round to reading them and think it should be part of my knowledge portfolio, my soon-to-be-deployed ruby app will pick up this article link from delicious, allow me to annotate it with my thoughts, add it to my BibTeX library and finally update my delicious tags, especially to remove the 'toread' tag and tag it with the keywords i've used within my BibTeX citation. I need to do a bit of research, but the same deal for books (search amazon), research articles (scholar.google.com), and so on. Anything that makes adding them to BibTeX easier. I know there are BibTeX plugins out there, but these are not giving me what I need. If you're interested, let me know and I post you updates. Cheers, Cleve Hi Victor,

I'm interested in what techniques you're using. I don't really have a strategy beyond bookmarking interesting articles that I have read. This strategy is a bit, ummm, haphazard and nearly useless. :) Can you share how you manage your knowledge portfolio? I’m interested in what techniques you’re using.
