Experiment 1: software choices made

After a few days thinking and talking to my collegues, I’ve decided on the software I’m going to use for the first experiment: google documents (with google gears for offline help) and zotero all running on Firefox.  The first task is going to see if I want to run this portably, using a nice USB key as my repository.  This is because its tricky to share zotero between browsers, but I think the zotero server may solve that at some point in the future.

The first problem is I don’t see a Harvard reference style for zotero, and that’s the style I’m expected to use in social sciences here at Otago.  I’ve used a hacked version of Harvard in endnote before, so I’ll have to find something similar.
