Want a scanner, copier or fax but just can't afford it? Well if you have a cell phone you are in luck. Now you can use an online application called scanR to turn your cell phone into a scanner, copier, and fax machine. The application is very easy and best of all its free for now. All you have to do is to take a picture of whatever document, whiteboard or business card you want to scan, copy or fax. Send the picture to scanR by e-mail, MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service), upload or widget from iGoogle. scanR will then save your scans online or optionally will send them as PDF files to your email address. To send a copy to someone else, add their email address in the subject of the message you send to scanR. scanR has recently enabled users to find and share notes from school on Facebook (see video). | ![]() |
If you missed a class or just want to see what your friends are studying, it’s easy to get electronic copies. With scanR, you can share class notes that you wrote in a notebook, lecture notes that your teacher wrote on the whiteboard, or a page from a textbook.
There is no need to type your notes into an email. Just take pictures of your notes, send them to scanR, and get copies sent right into Facebook. scanR will clean up and convert the pictures into clear, legible PDF files that are easy to share, view and print. With Class Notes, you can see your friends’ notes and share your own, as easily as taking a picture! Hey, we know you’re already on Facebook, now you can get some studying done while you are at it.
