Follow the citations
Follow a paper's references and the newer papers that cite it, without importing anything twice.
Read the transcript
Good papers point to other good papers. Following them by hand means a reference list, a search box, and a lot of copying. CurTask follows a paper's citations both ways: the papers it cites, and the newer papers that cite it.
Only the DOI is used, nothing about you. Open a paper and choose Connections. References lists the papers it cites.
Ones already in your library are marked, so you never import a paper twice. Cited by shows the newer work that builds on it. Choose Import, and the paper joins your library and this project, with its free PDF added when there is one.
One good paper leads to the next. That is CurTask.
