In response to the inquiry about Onfolio :
I have been using Onfolio since last September and could not live without it anymore. I don't understand what you mean by " I'm quite confused: if Onfolio is beta-part of Windows, is there any reason to pay $100+?" Onfolio integrates itself with the Office suite, and IE. For example, in Outlook I can save an e-mail or an attachment in a Onfolio Collections.
I use Onfolio for my bookmarks (not just a simple bookmark but you can describe it and add comments) and for managing all electronic documents. For the moment the Academic and Scientific version allow you to manage your reference and synchronise it with your EndNote database, it is not possible to do it with Reference Manager, but I'm sure that if there is a demand for the feature it could be available. It is also very useful to manage your RSS feed. Finally there is a search feature that allows you to search in your collection or feeds that is very useful...
Hope this will help you and others as well,

Just received an advertizing flyer for RefViz v.2 and Onfolio.
They look very attractive.
But I had a bad experience with RefViz version 1.
Directory manipulation of files was archaic, no drag and drop, didn't work with RefMan, seemed to crash whenever it tried to open RM's references.
Before being burned again, I would greatly appreciate users hands-on comments:
- the possibilities of using them with RefMan.
Website says they do work with RM. But same was said in v.1, so what in real life? Can I drag a RM library and drop it onto RefViz?
- I'm quite confused: if Onfolio is beta-part of Windows, is there any reason to pay $100+?
Thanks in advance for sharing your impressions,
