Zotero "senses" citation information available in a website, PDF, book, article, or other web object, and allows you to save this information with one quick click. You can than add additional notes or tags to the captured information. In this way, you can gather research from many different sources, keep it organized, and then export right into Microsoft Word (or another word processor) when you are ready to type your paper.
