Petter,
if I'm understanding your requirements correctly, I believe that you would
find an online bookmark manager helpful. I currently use My URL's
(http://www.murl.com). Using the "surfer" I can cut and paste information
into folders or directories which I have set up previously. The complete
file can be exported -- with live links. Best of all, my bookmarks are
machine-independent --
best,
Angela
-- I don't believe there are style formatting capabilities however --
> Way back in the late 80s early 90s several software packages were
> available for generating nice and tidy bibliographies out of records
> retrieved from Dialog, Datastar, and other online services (I remember one
> of the packages was ProCite, and you could instruct it to format the
> bibliographies according to any number of style sheets - Chicago, MLA,
> Turabian, etc.)

> Alta Vista or Infoseek. I'd be grateful for any suggestions.
