Feature of the Week: Sort your Post Lists

Since the last release of BibSonomy 2.0.33 we announced a few changes: one of them is the new feature to sort publications by the BibTeX field number.
In a previous blog entry we introduced the URL parameters sortPage and sortPageOrder. With the use of the URL parameters you can sort your publication lists by different BibTeX fields in an ascending or descending order.
As of now the sortPage parameter is extended by another option number. The number field of a BibTeX file represents the issue number of a journal, magazine or tech-report. Now you can sort the publication lists in BibSonomy by this issue number.
Here is an example in search of "social" with a descending order by the BibTeX fields journal, issue and number:

Happy Tagging !

Release 2.0.16

With some delay, today we upgraded BibSonomy to 2.0.16. We also updated our publicly available libraries at our Maven repository.
We are happy to announce, that this release includes the first version of a new major feature: Discussions and Reviews. We'll go into detail about that in our next blog post. But take a look at the stars you'll now find at the bottom right of every post and the new discussion link under each post.
Furthermore, new are:

• two new hidden system-tags: sys:unfiled and sys:jabRef:<someArgument>
  
• the extended functionality of the URL-parameter sortPage (sorting bookmarks is now possible)
  
• more allowed file types for your private document upload.
  

The next release is scheduled for July 27th.

Happy tagging!
