Now version 0.2, the Calendar is a standalone version spin off from the Mozilla Calendar component. Looks like it will do nothing more than Outlook´s calendar function. And it does not do PDA sync at this moment, and PocketPC is probably going to lag behind PalmOS.

This seems to be a great short course on English phonology as well as transcription, although the IPA does not seem to display correctly on my IE for some reason.

Silent EnglishIn 1968 an American linguist, answering the question “How do you pronounce TESOL?” (the acronym of the Association of Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages) answered: “T as in castle, E as in give, S as in island, O as in people, and L as in calm.” In fact you […]

RefVis does the mapping between Ref-Keyword, and Keyword-Keyword. However, it does not have prior knowledge on keywords — lacking a hierarchical structure. Not sure it uses citation information.

Endnote 8 is out… not a mailer. Larger Note size is great … for importing references. Unicode is unnecessary for APA anyway. Don´t think it´s worth the $$, though.
 
RefVis is interesting, but looks like a very limited product.

Tags: ISI Journal Citation Report looks like a great data source for my ShapeOfPsychology project. It provides for each journal a table of “cited journal” and a table of “citing journal”, detailed for each of the past 10 years. These are great starting points to map the connections between journals.
