Als vroegere technicus van IT, kan ik het belang van digitale documenten begrijpen. Heel wat ondernemingen vandaag gebruikt nog honderden voor dossiervakjes voor al hun informatie, die tot meer document afval en informatie moeilijk zich in te dienen, te organiseren leidt, en retreive.

Wat precies zijn digitale documenten?

Fundamenteel een digitaal document is uw fysiek document afgetast=wordt= dat in digitale dossiers zoals PDFs, Jpegs etc.etc… Als uw zaken geen meer dan 50% van alle documenten als digitale dossiers gebruiken, uw zaken misschien beschouwd=worden= als een „verkwistend“ bedrijf door de digitale normen van vandaag.

Wat zijn de digitale documenten belangrijk?

De digitale documenten kunnen honderden of zelfs duizenden bomen per jaar bewaren voor bedrijven die traditioneel gebruiksdocument de rekeningen, orde, enz.… etc… vormt

De bedrijven kunnen beginnen elk van hun informatie digitaal weer te geven en groen beginnen te gaan.  Nog beter, kon u waarschijnlijk zelfs verklaren, „Ons bedrijfgebruik meer dan 90% van digitaal weergegeven gegevens en om XXX aantal bomen per jaar“ te bewaren.

In het algemeen, bedrijven die gebruiken digitale documenten are far more organized and can backtrace any old document simply browsing through their hard drive instead of searching through boxes of physical files, which can be a costly in terms of both man power and physical storage space.

Of course, you could get a nice high speed scanner and digitize all your offline files yourself or you can resort to services from professional document management companies such as Digital Documents LLC, who provide full document management services and document scanning.

Most traditional companies will have hundreds of boxes of physical files that consist of accounting papers and other important documents such as patent files. By having all the information “digitized” into PDF files, you no longer need a physical space for your files nor do you have to worry about once-in-a-lifetime fire that could destory all your important information overnight.

Try visualizing all your stacked boxes full of files that are stuck in a corner of a warehouse all digitized and fitted into a portable 30GB harddrive you can carry with you anywhere in the world.  Next time your client asks for proprietary information about your company, skip the IT guy and show it to him directly from your laptop.

Even better, you can “encypt” your information once it has been digitized unlike physical files.

If you are interested in turning your business green by digitizing all your paper data, you can check out the ten step process that Digital Documents LLC provides:

Ten Stage Document Scanning Services Approach

Stage 1: Document Scanning Project Requirements

In this stage, your organization’s project requirements are defined utilizing the Project Tools. These requirements become the basis of the tailored solution we will develop to convert your files into Digital Assets. In addition, as a courtesy service, we schedule a time to process a set of sample documents for your Team’s review.

Stage 2: Documents Received

In this stage, we receive the project files and perform an inventory process to log and label these materials. These processes allow us to quickly retrieve any materials you may need while your files are in Our Care. Our goal is to serve your information access needs, minimizing the impact of this project on your business.

Stage 3: Document Preparation & Quality Review

In this stage, your files are prepared for scanning. The document preparation processes we utilize ensure that the natural order of each file is maintained and that the files are prepared to enable the best possible scanning results. The Preparation Team focuses on general project requirements (such as staple removal, binding removal, document repair and page orientation) and specific project requirements (such as special handling of Post-It Notes, color images and media). The Preparation Quality Lead performs our proprietary three-stage dDQualityActions© review of the prepared files. This entails a thorough review of the prepared files to ensure that all project requirements are met and that no variation is introduced into the process. Our experience with large-scale file conversion projects has shown that this unique approach minimizes any impact on quality.

Stage 4: Project Set-Up & Quality Review Procedures

In this stage, we tailor the Project Set-Up technical requirements based on the project requirements utilizing our dDSpeedScan® technologies. These requirements define the tailored processes and quality procedures we utilize to conduct each stage of your organization’s project. Our rigorous approach to tailoring the project specific technology requirements ensures the levels of accuracy your Team demands.

Stage 5: File Conversion & Quality Review

In this stage, your Team’s files are scanned utilizing our dDSpeedScan® technologies. Our scanning technologies and processes ensure the best possible image capture. The Scanning Team focuses on general project requirements (such as image settings, file format, page size and paper thickness), and specific project requirements (such as special processing of odd-size pages, color images and double-sided pages). The Scanning Services Quality Lead performs the dDQualityActions© review of the scanned files. This entails a thorough review of the files to ensure that all imaging requirements are met and that no variation is introduced into the process.

Stage 6: Post-Conversion Services

In this stage, the files are converted into the required file format and processed utilizing the required dDSpeedScan® image enhancement filters. If defined as a project requirement, Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is performed to enable word level search and retrieval. In this task, each letter in an image is processed utilizing our dDOptimaOCR
® technology. This advanced OCR technology ranks each character in a word to determine the best text recognition fit. Then once a word is generated, it is filtered through our proprietary dDAlgorithm© to ensure the highest quality results. Finally, the text is processed utilizing our sophisticated dDLayout© technology to accurately recreate the text layout of a page, providing the best possible search and retrieval accuracy.

Stage 7: File Naming, Coding & Quality Review

In this stage, the files are named and coded to enable search and retrieval and, if OCR was performed, a secure word level search within and across the digital files. To achieve the highest quality coding results, we focus on naming and coding accuracy and validation. We accomplish this by leveraging our
dDImageCode© technology, a proprietary coding solution to capture, review and name files based on the project requirements. In addition, the Coding Quality Lead performs our proprietary three-stage dDQualityActions© review of the coded files. This entails a thorough review of the files to ensure that all coding requirements are met and that no variation is introduced into the process. Our last Coding Audit confirmed a Six-Sigma level of quality in the coding of “unstructured documents.”

Stage 8: File Data Integration & Management

In this stage, the digital files and the coded fields are integrated utilizing our dDOCP© technologies and processes to ensure the best possible search and retrieval options. These “Optimally Coded Page” technologies ensure that each file and its corresponding coded fields are integrated to create a file that acts as a self-contained database. The result is files that are flexible and accessible from CDs, DVDs, PCs, Servers or your organizations Document Management System.

Stage 9: Project Deliverable & Quality Review

In this stage, your organization’s digital files are stored on Media/Posted/Hosted and a Project Status Report is prepared. We pride ourselves on our ability to provide the best possible deliverable in the time required, and have designed each stage in the conversion process with a focus on quality. As detailed in the description of the stages above, we take every measure to ensure consistency and quality while minimizing variation by continually improving our processes. This is a tenet of ISO 9000 and the Total Quality procedures to which we strive to adhere.

Stage 10: Deliverable Sent / Files Returned or Recycled

In this stage, your digital documents are shipped and the files Returned, Recycled or Certified Destroyed. Once you receive and review the digital files, we can initiate our electronic file destruction procedures, which permanently delete your files from our systems. The technology we utilize exceeds the U.S. Department of Defense’ secure file destruction requirements. This “electronic file shredder” completely removes all traces of your files and scrubs our hard drives to ensure that no file can be restored by data recovery utilities.

Well, it looks like the Blackberry revolution will be here soon to compete against the iPhone. Of course, Verizon and Sprint networks are so much faster, that’s the only reason I’d use it over the iPhone.

The Boy Genius has a bunch of new details on the upcoming touchscreen Blackberry, including the interesting tidbit that it’ll be a lifetime exclusive on Verizon in the US and Vodafone in Europe. It’ll have a mere four physical keys and will run on 3G EV-DO Rev. C as well as GSM HSPA for international use. No word on when this thing is going to drop, or whether or not anyone who uses a Blackberry will allow a physical QWERTY keyboard to be pried from their grip, but we’ll keep you updated.

Hi all,

I’ve been a little busy with building some beer widgets that give you free traffic to your site.

You can get these cool beer widgets that give you 50 Beer Credits which you can use 10 Beer Credits to get 1 unique visitor to your site.

In simple words, you send 1 click through the beer widget to SiteHoppin and SiteHoppin sends you 5 clicks. It’s the best exchange ratio that exists on the internet today so go grab your beer widget.

It’s sorta like a traffic exchange program except there’s also lots of users who are there to find new sites.

Oh yeah, the first 50 people to put the widget get a “lifetime” rotating banner ad (125×125 pixel) on SiteHoppin sidebar, a deal you must not miss. (There 7 widgets up so, you still got chance if you act early.)

Here’s the link to the details.

Oh kay, enough with Beer Widgets, I will be posting more cool tech stuff starting tomorrow after I do my taxes, and take care of some stuff.  Cheers~

I’ve been getting into monetizing blogs lately and wrote a little article on selling text link ads on your blogs. Check it out and you can take control over the money you make on your blog and increase your profits!

You’ve probably seen bunch of sites that you can sign up for to sell text link ads on your site. I’ve personally tried Text-Link-Ads.com. Although I have made money through their system, I probably only made $200 a month at the most. The problem with these sites is that they take 50% of your sales! That’s a lot of money to give away if you ask me. Plus, they only sell on monthly basis, so you are not guaranteed a steady income.

The solution? Sell you text link ads on your blog as “lifetime” links or get your advertisers to commit to at least one year. That way, you get a large sum of money beforehand. Even if you sell one text link for $1000, you are better off putting that cash in your bank and not worrying about it rather than having to check every month how much you are making.

In other words, SELL your text link ads on your blog. Have a link to a simple explanation how advertisers can buy text link ads on your site. This keeps your life simpler since you only have to place the link once. Set it and forget it.

Here’s a guideline for selling links on your blog:

1. Offer any text links for $20 to $25 a pop. That’s very low for industrial average but you set it and forget it.

2. Offer “site-wide” text links for $1000 a pop. This site-wide link would be placed either on your sidebar or your footer. By offering a permanent links, you offer the advertiser a feature above all the other text link ad sites.

With this method, I’ve made more money within a week than all the money I made through Text-Link-Ads.com. I am not trying to bag on their policies but with the recent penalizations by Google, the best way to sell your links is to sell them directly to your customers and gain 100% profit.

Take control of your blog and monetize those text links that many many SEO companies are after. If you make money, make sure to ping this post by writing about it.

To sum up, think of how much money you can make if you sold 100 lifetime links for $1000. That’s $100,000 in your pocket and you can re-invest that money into advertising for your blog so you get more traffic and raise your PageRanking.

Don’t become a slave to one of those Text Link Ad companies that rip your money. (50%!!! Fu*k that. I will just sell my own links.) TAKE CONTROL of your blog today and MAKE MONEY ONLINE selling direct to your customers, readers, whatever.

P.S. I apologize for those text link ad companies, but I am telling the truth and you guys are selling text links off innocent bloggers who don’t know better.

Think about it? A text link ad company sells YOUR LINKS, not theirs. All they are did is setup a system to make 50% off your links. YES, again, YOUR LINKS!
