For the control freaks among us, I would (again) suggest to try
research.org vs. citeulike. (I use both, naturally the latter only
recently.) The "identify publications" feature addresses the problem
with non-normalized names, and Eelco is very susceptible to feedback and
feature requests. So there is a true chance for us control freaks to
impact how things get implemented, and how the rules are set.

This is not meant to discourage the new, FP specific bibliography of the
original poster. I like it. It shows all my relevant papers, with a
proper author name, despite the Umlaut I'm "burdened" with. :-)

Ciao,
Janis.
