IntelliScanner Comic Collector: Personal Comic Organization System Automatically Identifies Issues, Organizes with Barcode Technology

RALEIGH, NC (PRWeb) January 4, 2007 -- IntelliScanner today announced the upcoming release of IntelliScanner Comic Collector, its personal barcode scanner and companion software package for automatic comic collection management. Built for both PCs and Macs, Comic Collector automatically pulls up detailed information and artwork for each series and issue, then makes it easy to sort, organize, inventory, categorize, and share comic details with friends.

IntelliScanner Comic Collector offers:

* Automatically identify series, issues, and cover artwork with the Add Series Assistant and an Internet database with over 250,000 issues. Comic Collector finds detailed information like the title, date, detailed credits (including writer, penciller, inker, editor, and cover credits), features, and a cover scan.

* Print IntelliScanner Comic Tags with any inkjet or laser printer: barcode-enabled inserts for any comic. Simply print on plain paper, fold in half, and stick it in the bag for detailed comic information and a unique barcode.

* Scanning integration with the included, portable IntelliScanner barcode reader. Scan a comic to pull up that issue in the system, run a complete inventory, move locations, or build a batch of what you'd like to browse through or edit when you get back at your computer. Take the scanner with you anywhere, then plug it back in when you return to your desk to download.

* Instant searching and browsing, powered by the open-source SQLite database engine.

* Smart Printing provides detailed comic lists with artwork, barcodes, and customizable details.

* Keep track of web-based comics, too -- just like an RSS feed reader.

* Share your collections with friends using IntelliScanner.net, our free Web 2.0 enhanced service for exploring and sharing your comics online. Example: http://www.intelliscanner.net/example/comics
