Someone said to me recently that they couldn't understand the jargon of I.T. and they felt baffled by all the special words that we use. I decided to try and help with some of the words that we use every day at the scanning bureau, these I am sure a lot of you know but some may be new to you.

Electronic Storage

In this section I will try to explain the different names for the units of measurement of data. In other words you will have heard of a Megabyte or a Gigabyte but what do they mean and are there any others.

Today's businesses are still overflowing in paper. With modern businesses the need to access information quickly is essential. A recent survey finds that 90% of business information is still held as paper. 89% of businesses still have paper archives, this has reduced from 98% two years ago. The average office worker spends on average 3 hours per week looking for lost, misplaced or misfiled documents. Consider the last time that you couldn't find a needed document or were asked to assist in the search for a lost document. It is disruptive, unproductive and costly in many ways to have this hunt the paper exercise.
