Livescribe takes on OneNote and Google Sites

The Livescribe Smartpen can now send handwritten notes and recorded audio to Microsoft OneNote, and Google Sites.

First introduced this May, the Livescribe Connect service already connects to Google Docs, Facebook, Evernote, Email and the iPad and iPhone.

Livescribe Connect for the Echo and Pulse smartpens can also deliver interactive “pencasts” from paper.

“Written and spoken information are two powerful communication tools; however, most of this information is largely inaccessible in a digital format. Livescribe fills this void by enhancing the capture, access and sharing of written and spoken information both on paper and electronically,” said Byron Connell, Livescribe co-founder and chief marketing officer.

“Adding support for Google Sites and OneNote to the Livescribe Connect suite provides our customers with two more valuable ways to organiSe, access and share important information from meetings and lectures.”

In addition to the new connectors, the update to the Livescribe Connect software (version 1.1) includes two other enhancements. The Facebook connector now allows users to post pencasts on friends’ walls in addition to their own, as well as Livescribe’s fan page. And, for Mac customers, Livescribe Connect now supports the recently released Mac OS X Lion.
