Podcast of Nora Young interview with Clay Shirky. Intellectual production going to be as profoundly affected by the production of the amateur as the MSM has already been.

I own a licensed copy of Endnote. I had a few years of references built up in Endnote but I was having problems with updates and loosing reference files and the application locking up. Support was terrible. Endnote was clunky bloatware but I used it because it was the best available at the time and I had a lot of references stored. I spent hours just keeping the Endnote application in shape. I learned that I really needed to save my Endnote files on a regular basis other wise I had to do a lot of recreating, more hours of my labour. I saved the files in a non-proprietary format and consider it my stuff I was so pleased when I discovered Zotero. It worked. A couple of times when I had issues getting it set up I contacted the developers and they got right back to me so I have been a big fan ever since. I was able to open my saved reference files in Zotero and concentrate on using my references rather that maintaining an application. It will be interesting to see how this plays out but there are some very good arguments to suggest that this is a frivolous and predatory lawsuit. I hope GMU sticks to it. If TR wants to maintain it's customer base, make a better product.
