Come visit my blog on portable scanners
A particularly useful feature that many portable scanners come with nowadays is optical character recognition technology, which essentially allows you to capture information that is printed on business cards, flyers and brochures, and stores them in a format that you can then later edit. With such a feature, you wont actually have to carry around all of those business cards that have a way of multiplying like so much fungi. all you have to do is scan the data in! This is a great way to cut down on weight and clutter while traveling, and this alone makes portable scanners worth a closer look. Storing your contact information as computer data also allows you to share this data with your colleagues more easily and more efficiently. Since the data is already in digital format, you could simply email everyone in the appropriate contact list, and they will be up to speed without having to leave their seats.
