From Traditional to Paperless Faxing

February 19, 2012 By Leave a Comment

It may seem that the fax machine was invented only a handful of years ago, but the truth is it has been over 100 years in the making. The first recognized version of a fax machine was invented in 1843. Now, if you want to know when online faxing became available, look back to a couple of years ago.

History of Traditional Faxing

Though the actual science and technology of the traditional fax machine predates the late 1980s, it wasn’t until that time that fax machines became standard business equipment. The original technology was invented in England, 1843, by Alexander Bain.  An American named Elisha Gray, invented and patented the first facsimile transmission system, and started a company that later became the West Electric Company.

By 1902 a German inventor, Arthur Korn came up with “telephotography.” His invention introduced the idea of breaking an image down into pieces, and transmitting them via electrical wires. The first inter-city fax was sent by Korn from Munich to Berlin in, 1907.

In 1925, a Frenchman named Eouard Belin invented a system where he placed an image on a cylinder. And by scanning it with a powerful light with the use of a photoelectric cell, converted the light into electrical impulses, which could be sent from one place to another. This invention was what all subsequent versions of the fax machine were based on.

It was in 1964, that the Xerox Corporation invented the Long Distance Xerography or LDX. Then in 1966, they introduced the first fax machine which could be connected to a phone line. It was called the Magnafax Telecopier, and could transmit a letter-sized document to another location in six minutes.

In the 1970s the Japanese began to manufacture smaller faster models of the Magnafax. During the 1980s, the fax machines became ubiquitous throughout the business community.

The advent of the Internet has given birth to faster, more digitally-designed forms of communication. Computers have become affordable the world over, and with the means of connecting them all into a giant web, we have seen technology in this area explode. Communication over the Internet has swallowed up all previous forms.

People now connect over their phones through the Internet in more and more instances which is displayed with the use of, Voice over IP. The providers of telephone and Internet have begun to blur, and the services and technology of each have bled back and forth between them. What is done through a phone line can now be done over Internet cables and vice-versa.

Online faxing, “Internet Faxing” or “e-faxing” is simply the original concept of faxing an image through the Internet. Also, the resulting transmission is received as an image file through email, or printed out. Sending an online fax is accomplished through online providers, or by using the correct software directly from your computer. Online faxing has made the transmission of an image quicker, easier, more efficient, and user-friendly than ever before.

Best Phone for Your Personality

January 9, 2012 By Leave a Comment

With today’s modern technology, there is no reason for anyone to miss the opportunity of getting the best phone that fits his or her personality and preferences. Although a lot of new devices – mobile phones in particular – are being introduced from time to time, you can definitely find that one phone that beats them all.

Below are some of the best phones for different personalities and needs.

FOR GAMERS

Finding the right phone for a gamer is no simple task. The options are many, and often unsatisfying.  Games are more than collections of pixels and multi-player chaos. Instead, they offer thrills to every user, with simulated battles, first-person shooters and RPGs providing hours of fun. Limiting that fun to traditional systems is therefore not recommended. Instead, embrace the possibilities of smartphone gaming.

The Sony Ericsson Xperia Play

Serious gamers need serious hardware, and the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play provides some of the most impressive technologies available. This smartphone which is intended for PlayStation fans offers a 3G network, LCD touchscreen, 237 kilobytes per second of data and even an Android operating system. It shines, however, with its touch-sensitive gaming controls and PlayStation-style buttons. The slide-side design even provides dedicated gaming space, making this the ideal phone for avid competitors.

 

FOR MUSIC FANS

Every music lover must be thankful that today’s mobile phones provide entertainment on the go. Almost every phone marketed today has such capabilities, but finding one that offers great quality may be tricky. For music phones, the sounds should be crisp yet thumping with rhythmic bass. Video quality is supposed to be superb, too. Based on those requirements, here’s one device worth checking out.

The Samsung Vitality

Samsung Vitality is Cricket’s first Android smartphone that is supported by Muve Music. It is a fully featured Android device powered by the Android 2.3 OS and aside from feeding your ears with great music, it also gives you access to over 200,000 Android market apps. Moreover, Muve music also allows unlimited song downloads. The MetroPCS Rhapsody challenges Cricket Muve phones, but you can bet who wins the race.

 

FOR PROFESSIONALS AND EXECUTIVES

The need for constant connectivity to easily access data and information anytime, anywhere, is apparent for many business professionals. The ability to perform executive tasks while on the go is also a must. Apple’s iPhone can prove to be a device that has it all.

The Apple iPhone

The Apple iPhone proves an ideal option. This innovative piece offers a four-chip processor, retina display and video mirroring, which allows every image to impress anyone. You can also find tools and programs from the collection of Apps available for download that can help you sort your business easier. Moreover, thousands of games — from old-school favorites to new designs — make sure that your mind is continually stimulated.

 

There are other phones that are worth checking out, but you may want to consider putting these phones on top of your list.
