2. Google Book Search You know
Google book search 
exists, but have you tried citing from those books. Often, I had to produce a write-up, essay or the last-minute paper for a conference. When I dotn have enough time to pull out a strong reference from books, I issue a Google book search, up comes the results from book with snippets view showing paragraphs and texts that I were exactly looking for. I paraphrase them and correctly reference them. Neat hack.

6. Digital Theses Networks
Australia is probably, the only country where every research student is asked to deposit a digital copy of their theses to a national database for a common cause. The
Australasian Digital Theses Program 
is very popular among the researchers as every university in Australia is participating in it. A similar initiative is being carried out at the international level, which is
PhDData.org 
- a 5 year old program which aims to collect the research theses from the universities around the world. There is also another initiative named "
Networked Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations
" that looks promising as well. 7. Bibliography made easy

If you are thinking of developing a document with your peer researchers - across boundaries, you have to use this. No more copying drafts, final versions and confusions on which one is what. With the added spreadsheets and presentations, it is a cool collection of tools for storing documents on the move.
