As the Zotero development community diligently refines Zotero 1.5, we are also starting to break ground on the new Zotero website. To whet your appetite, here is a small taste of what’s to come.

Zotero 1.5 Sync Preview users can now take advantage of preliminary read access to their synced collections from any web browser on any computer, including a version formatted for the Apple iPhone and iPod Touch. The image to the right is a screenshot of browsing a collection on an iPhone. Just think of the possibilities!

To try this out, you will need to have synced your Zotero 1.5 library to the Zotero server. Then simply visit https://beta.zotero.org and log in to view your library.

Zotero runs quite nicely on the OLPC. If you would like to try it out just set up Firefox 2 and download Zotero just as you normally would.

We are excited to announce the second winner of our ongoing Zotero T-shirts for Taglines Contest. Congratulations to Eric Wignall for his contribution, “Zotero: the web now has a wrangler.” If you refresh the Zotero home page a few times you are bound to see this new tagline appear at the top of the page.

Now is your chance to get in on our ongoing contest. Post your ideas for new taglines to our forums and you too could win a Zotero T-shirt and all the glory that comes with it.

Zotero is almost a year old, and all kinds of researchers are making use of the tool. What catchy phrase do you think best captures what Zotero does for you? Post your suggestions here and you could win a Zotero t-shirt. Each month we will select the best tagline and add it to the rotating catch phrases at the top of the Zotero homepage. Winners not only receive a t-shirt but also bragging rights, so start posting!
