People in academia may benefit from <a href="http://www.libx.org/" title="libx.org">LibX</a libx.org>, which adds a searchbar for google scholar and online library catalogs and automatically links pages containing COinS, ISSN/ISBNs, etc.
If they're willing to use Fifrefox 2, they might be interested in <a href="http://zotero.org/" title="zotero.org">Zotero</a zotero.org>. This works as a bibliographic manager, a'la Endnote (but with better import/export of many bibliographic standards (included embedded microformats)).
Both are free and open source. I have used both in conjunction with <a href="http://refbase.sourceforge.net/" title="sourceforge.net">refbase</a sourceforge.net>, a web-based bibliographic management system I help develop.
