I had a quick look around but nothing grabbed my attention. The groups idea is nice but I prefer JournalFire or Scintilla. They could consider importing tagged data from Connotea and Citeulike to bootstrap it. I wonder if they can do this.

In the current form, I completely agree with you. Other than the groups and, from what I heard, a nice simple API, there is nothing compelling to making me switch from Connotea I did like the somewhat sparse design). That said, I got a feeling that this is only a start.
If I recall you can import from Connotea and CiteULike, but I don't think the tags come through (worth a try)

Hi Pedro, Deepak
Yes, just to let you know, we are looking at the tagging aspects of our importing and exporting from other app's. Unfortunately, we are trying to decipher how other sites have set up their information - but we're trying! Setting standards for social app's (so Open Social if it is versatile enough) has obvious benefits and really would help lower the walls around the different app's that researchers use.

I tried importing a Zotero export and all the tags were stripped. I didn't try importing from Connotea because there was no way to delete the lot and start over using the same profile.
The Scopus intergration is nice, but I couldn't find any of my papers in Scopus, and my library doesn't subscribe to Scopus(subscribes to WoS), so as nice as the automatic forward links are, I don't guess I'll be using it.
