Book Scanning Made Simple

Book Scanning Made Simple 12/29/2003 11:47 PM

Book-scanning uncovered: A nice look at a book scanning machine.

A technician lays the book onto a special cradle inside the machine and air jets gently fluff up pages on the right side. A robotic arm swings over the book and sucks up one page with a special vacuum, and pulls the page over. Two more robotic arms then swing over and flatten out the pages with clear plastic clamps.

I love this idea. When I was a kid, I lived in the public library. I just loved the idea that so much knowledge was contained in the books around me. I have a subscription to O'Reilly's Safari, and I love that so many books are available to me, on demand.

The words "archives" and "library" give me goosebumps. This article almost got me teary-eyed, thinking about its implications. I have professional fantasies of becoming a librarian.

All my hopes and dreams for the Internet are riding on machines like this. I want every printed word in the history of Mankind available instantly. Is that too much to ask? I have a huge smile on my face right now, just thinking about it.

You Can't Spell RFID without "If"

You Can't Spell RFID without "If" 11/03/2003 02:35 PM
Radio frequency identification tags are coming, but are they friend, foe, or just too expensive?: WalMart's mandate of RFID tags on products entering their maelstrom will push the adoption of the technology, but some of the futurists' visions of milk carton's reporting in to their home base when they're empty seem like a combination of The Jetsons and 1984. RFID tags are also way too expensive for this vision of the future -- whether AT&T "You Will" utopic or Brave New World dystopic. The cost has to come way down to make them useful for individual products and shelves. Right now, the palette level is the right price point. (Intrepid staffer Nancy Gohring filed the story for The Seattle Times; Nancy is on vacation this week.)...

Book Publishers Selling Direct - Pissing

Book Publishers Selling Direct - Pissing
Off Book Retailers 02/13/2004 05:52 AM
One of the struggles that companies have as distribution and sales mechanisms change is handling legacy channel conflict issues. Dell became huge by selling direct to customers, but when rival Compaq started to move in that direction, their retail partners freaked out - and Compaq had to scale back their plans. It appears that book publishers are now going through the same process. They've realized that if someone is looking for info about certain books on their site, it makes sense to also offer them a chance to buy it. However, it's pissing off retailers, who don't want to hear that their suppliers are competing with them. Retailers say a reasonable compromise would be having the publishers point to the retailers, which was my first response as well. However, then it becomes a political situation of who do you link to and why? There's also the fact that this makes for a less enjoyable consumer experience. I know that, more than once, I've been annoyed at online sites where I go for info on buying a product, but when I try to buy am given a big list of retailers instead of a way to buy right away.
