May 3, 2009 – LiveScribe Pulse SmartPen
On Friday of last week, I got a cool electronic device that is very useful and I thought I would get one. I got a SmartPen made by LiveScribe. It takes a pictures as you write on the dot matrix paper they have develop, and that you can record audio joining the words your write. It is a great tool for students, i believe if every child in school should have one. This would help them with note taking because you can transfer notes to your computer. All the words that you wrote on the dot matrix paper are stored and you can share them with your classmates. As for the recorder, If you missed what the teacher said later that day, you can tap anywhere on the dot matrix page where you wrote your notes, and it would give you the accompanied audio. It comes with these earphones also that have built in microphones, so you can pick up the teacher. Also, this would be a great tool for business people as well, because there are spots in the meeting you can’t always write down everything that your boss is saying.
Technology has come so far, but I think there are other things that might make this more of a useful tool. I mean I like it, and I will be using it for writing it as a journal. I wish it had some more accessories.
