Digital binders, methods for replicating the same with physical binders, and binder systems incorporating the same

摘要

A binder includes both physical content and digital content. The physical content is printed on sheets retained by the binder, and the digital content is stored on a memory associated with the binder. The digital memory may be interfaced with a computerized device, such as a personal computer or a portable electronic device. The digital memory may be a portable memory device such as a memory card or a dedicated device incorporated within the binder. The digital content represents the physical content as accurately as possible so that when viewed on a computerized device with a display, the physical content is accurately represented. The digital content may be modified by a user with a computerized device, with the modified pages being subsequently printed out so that the physical content is replicated with the modified digital content. Accordingly, the binder provides the benefits of a binder with both physical content that is tangible, familiar, and comfortably viewed and digital content that is easily transmitted and modified electronically.
