My wife got wind of this tool in one of the PR/Marketing newsletters she’s subscribed to. It’s called Qipit, and the idea is that you take a photo of class notes,  a whiteboard, or other document, email it or SMS it to them and get a PDF version of it for your use or to share with others.

My question is, do you see this as a useful tool, or do you corporate security type folks see it as your worst nightmare, someone coming to work and photographing sensitive documents with their phone and being able to easily get them as PDF, completely bypassing all the measures you take to keep them from being emailed outside your organization?
