ReadCube

 
In case it hasn't become obvious, I read a lot of random scientific articles, both in my discipline and outside it. It would be really nice to have an actual legit pdf-reader to view and organize them without having to either download and print or file them every time I want to research something like hummingbirds flying or carbon nanotubules. Well, my wishes have been answered!

ReadCube! It's really cool! It's a really nice pdf-reader with nice viewing and referencing for academic literature, mostly journal articles. You can take notes, highlight, generate citations, even click references in the pdf and download them in just a couple clicks. Score! Plus it has integrated search and download from PubMed and Google, and you can save multiple sets of search results for future perusal. There's even a web reader for journals like Nature, so you can edit and highlight online and then download and store it in the application. And it's free, of course. :D
