I was doing some cleaning recently and found that I have way too many magazines. I really need to simplify my life with less (papers).
Most of the magazines I save is because of some great article or photos. And I hardly ever get back to them again.
So this weekend I am going to do something about it. And I am going to start by using ScanDrop.
With ScanDrop, the scanned documents are uploaded as PDFs to Google DOCS, Evernote, or ScanDrop itself for free.
The bad part about this type of scanning is that you can’t search for contents there. But if you have the paid Evernote or ScanDrop account then it’s possible. What they do is convert the PDFs to text.
The neat part is that you can also share the scanned documents and paper with your friends or co-workers.
This is still a great idea and makes my life much more simpler. Hopefully this will release me from my huge stack of magazines as well as other documents.
Here is more info from ScanDrop:
“ScanDrop (beta) is simple - one simple, free scanning software application that helps you scan and upload your paper directly into Google Docs. Press Scan, then Upload and your paper is now available in your own Google Docs account! You can even select the folder you’d like your document to upload into.
