Mendeley is both a (free) reference manager and an "academic social network." Users can import papers they are using for research, highlight, annotate, and tag them.

By Daniel R. Rehak, PhD., Advanced Distributed Learning (ADL) technical advisor. Presented as keynote at Fourth International Workshop on Search and Exchange of e-le@rning Materials (SE@M '10), September 27-28 2010 in Barcelona Spain. Rehak's basic point is that all of the learning materials already exist -- we just need a better, more viable, more searchable repository for them. Very nicely produced presentation.

Conrad Wolfram presentation on TED.com (filmed July 2010; posted Nov 2010). Wolfram argues that math applications are all around us, and that people in a ever-wider variety of workplaces are excited about math...but students are not. Wolfram argues that bringing computers into the math classroom would help improve math's relevancy -- and build excitement as well. Use the tag wolfram to look at his "knowledge engine," Wolfram Alpha.
