Abstract

A method is disclosed in which exhibitors or presenters at an event provide digital content to a content administrator, who in turn processes the digital content and loads it onto a content delivery device. At the event attendees are issued portable memory devices that, when engaged with a content delivery device, upload the digital content from that content delivery device. Each portable memory device has an information management software that enables the attendee to search, correlate and manage the digital content. In some embodiments digital content is loaded to the portable memory device without use of the content delivery device.

distributing a portable memory device having an information management software stored therein, each portable memory device having a first group of data concerning a plurality of content delivery devices;

engaging the portable memory device with a plurality of the content delivery devices so that digital content from the engaged content delivery device is delivered to the portable memory device;

engaging the portable memory device with a computing device to access and manage the digital content received from the plurality of content delivery devices;

wherein the digital content can be searched by category, and such searching will include the first group of data.

2. A method, comprising:

obtaining digital content from exhibitors or presenters at an event;

providing a portable memory device to attendees at the event, the portable memory device having the digital content from the exhibitors and an information management software stored thereon, wherein the information management software is configured to be transferred to a computing device along with the digital content, and wherein the information management software manages the digital content.

3. The method of claim 2, wherein the information management software automatically accesses a content administrator server online and updates the digital content.
