Organizing PDFs

I'm trying out Zotero as a tool for organizing pdfs of journal articles. My journal articles are always hidden away in multiple folders on my computer and it's hard to find them when I need them. Zotero lets me access them from a central location, and I can tag and search them. If you are viewing certain websites, like Socrates or Physical Review, Zotero will import title/author information for you. It will also export Bibtex.

If you are using a Mac (I don't think any of us are), Papers is the new, awesome scientific paper organizer for Macs. I was searching for a PC version, and that's how I came across Zotero.
