As for the research part, I think one major issue is that the workflow is too personal and not (necessarily) compatible with other people.
In our research group we ended up doing annotated bibliography in a common repo. bibtex format and git. This way the kbr grows over the time with distributed effort.
There is a common shared structure. You have to provide well written bibtex ref and a paragraph or 2 of annotations. The first paragraph has a strict structure where essentially you reply to a few questions. Other paragraphs can be added freely by each person (with your initials).
Anyway, this is just specific to research and a subset of the kbr, but I'd think also to ways where what you collect can be useful to others, and viceversa others can add to your kbr without generating mess.
