Academic Citation Tool for WordPress

I found a fantastic plugin for WordPress that reveals to others how to academically cite postings on your WordPress blog. What a wonderful contribution from the opensourse community!

(from Jeremy Douglass). This is an experiment I coded in a few minutes using WordPress template tags, then added to the Single Post template page. Next steps might include making a switchable display that supported more formats (Chicago, APA, etc.) and wrapping it up as a WordPress Plugin for portability and reuse. An advanced plugin might generate a link to a downloadable BibTex or EndNote entry, for direct compatibility with desktop reference manager software.
