Mendeley - academic software for researchers

From the Mendeley web site: "Mendeley is free social software for managing and sharing research papers. It is also a Web 2.0 site for discovering research trends and connecting to like-minded academics. To achieve our long-term vision of a 'Last.fm for research', we're working with the former founding engineers of Skype and Last.fm’s former chairman."

"Mendeley is the easiest way to manage, share and cite your collection of research papers - both on your desktop and online. It also lets you discover research trends and connects you to like-minded researchers."
