Google Docs OCR

Google Docs recently added the feature to perform OCR (optical character recognition) on uploaded pdf and image files. So now, you can have it convert a pdf into text!

When you upload a file into Google Docs you should see the new option. If you need to convert a pdf that someone sends to you into text (why isn't everything already text will always boggle me) then this might be a nice option to check out.

flickr tagging


Atlantic Cape shares thousands of photo on our flickr account, with many new photos added daily. This is a great resource for not only sharing photos with the community, but also if a photo is needed for internal use too. I really recommend that you check it out if you haven't already.

Also, please feel free to add any additional tags to photos as well. You just need to be logged into flickr (using a flickr or Yahoo! account) to do so. Tagging of photos makes them much easier to find and sort, so please tag away. A location, individual(s), event, etc. The more descriptive our photos are tagged the better.
