Feature of the week: BibSonomy Scholar with seamless posting

We previously posted about our BibSonomy Scholar Chrome extension here and here. We have further improved it and are now scraping the BibTex from Google Scholar itself in order to support more a hassle-free posting experience. It works a lot faster now and always works. Previously the posting process often broke due to unknown publisher pages or broken scraping programs. One downside of this is that Google Scholar often provides rather incomplete or plainly wrong BibTex entries. To cope with this we added a BibTex-preview button so that you can check the posted information beforehand. Overall the extension works a lot smoother now and we hope you like it. Let us know if you find any issues.

Happy posting
Martin
