Welcome to my blog! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

I attend a large number of conferences, workshops, training events, and tele-seminars every year and I am a voracious note taker. It would not be unusual for me to complete 30 pages of detailed notes at a day long conference or a complete notebook at a weekend event. I know allot of people who do not like taking written notes and prefer to use a micro-audio recorder to tape events and transcribe later, which is a very time consuming task. Well, I was introduced to a great new tool to satisfy the needs of individuals in both camps plus it is just plain cool!

Introducing the LiveScribe Pulse S martp en a tremendous tool that allows you to simultaneously take written and record audio notes instantly with one device that weights a mere 1.3 ounces. When I saw this the first time I could believe the concept and the ease of use makes this a powerful tool to make the most out of your written notes and transcriptions. I am exploring how to use this tool and the high quality audio to make new information products seemlessly.

Here is how it works; the Livescribe Pulse Smartpen records audio and links it what you write as you write it, so it tracks along for replay at a later time. If you missed something you simply tap on your notes or drawings with the tip of your Pulse Smartpen and the audio for that specific portion of your notes is replayed so you hear what was said while you were writing. There are a variety of ways you can then use the recorded data; transform your written notes and audio into interactive movies or upload your files online to share on a numbner of platforms.

If you are an information marketer consider the ease at which you can transform a presentation into a information product with very little editing for easy distribution as an interactive FLASH, PDF of audio file.
