LiveScribe Smart Pens can now export your handwritten notes and “pen casts”, including audio from your Digital Pen into OneNote, Evernote, Google Apps, Email…. using LiveScribe Connect. You can then sully search the notes and recordings in OneNote. This also means that you can sync these to you SkyDrive account and access them through a browser.

The OneNote team blogged about this a few months ago here (http://blogs.office.com/b/microsoft-onenote/archive/2011/08/03/livescribe-smartpen-users-can-now-easily-connect-to-onenote.aspx) but I just discovered it.

I pulled my Digital SmartPen out of the drawer (where it has been for 5 months), recharged it and updated it to use LiveScribe Connect. I imported my notes into OneNote and have been organizing them. So far, so good. Note the “best” experience that I would have expected, but it’s a “good enough” experience.

This is something I was told was on the roadmap by LiveScribe over 2 years ago when I purchased my SmartPen. I had actually given up on it, when they finally released the capability. So, time to buy another LiveScribe Notebook.
