So I need two blog posts. My first one is going to be about this new program I've been using called Mendeley. The idea is really clever. For people doing research project the program compiles sources of information such as research papers and journals. What you'll find interesting is that the program works a lot like dropbox. When it's installed the program allows you to create a folder that syncs across all of your computing devices (including iPhones). In fact, Menedeley basically copied the entire dropbox content. They have the magic folder, and online portal, and 5 gb of free storage. So the lesson. You learn that succussful programs to do not have to be entirely unique. If you find a computing concept that works, stick with it.
