It would be nice
if you could write (or draw) on a piece of paper with a pen and send that
handwritten note straight to Google Docs or Evernote for digital archiving?
Would not it be
nice if you could write (or draw) on a piece of paper with a pen and send that
handwritten note straight to the cloud – like Google Docs or Evernote – for
digital archiving?
One option is
that you use scan the paper as a PDF file and upload it to Google Docs but if
you need a solution that’s more simple and completely automated, consider
getting yourself a Livescribe pen.
Livescribe is an
impressive piece of technology – it is like a regular pen with an ink cartridge
but unlike any other pen, Livescribe pens record everything that you write on a
notebook including the audio that you hear (like when you are in a meeting or a
lecture).
Later, you can
tap on your notes to replay the recording. You can connect the pen to your
computer via a USB cable to transfer all your handwritten notes and the linked
voice recordings to the desktop. All your handwritten notes are searchable now
or you can transcribe them to digital text using the Livescribe Desktop
software.
What is a
Livescribe Smartpen?
Send your Paper
Notes to Google Docs, Evernote, etc.
Livescribe today
announced a new software update that will let you send your handwritten notes
from paper to cloud services like Facebook, Google Docs or Evernote with a few
taps.
You draw a small
double-line on the paper that you want to archive, write the destination name
on that line (like “Google Docs”) and the next time you connect your pen to the
computer, the note will find its way to the cloud automatically.
A limitation is that
the transfer is not wireless and will only happen when you connect the pen to
your PC or Mac. Livescribe Pens start at $99 (the basic model has 2 GB storage)
but there’s another recurring cost – it only works with a special kind of paper
