The Hornbase Project, renamed in early 2008 to The Gearbase Project, is an elegant solution to an age-old problem: If you were forced to identify, specifically, "stuff" you had in your home, your studio, your rehearsal space--could you do it? Still have those ownership records handy? Know the serial numbers to your Kurzweil or your Marshall amp or your horn?
No, I didn't think so. Neither can I, and that's a Bad Thing (tm). The Gearbase, and its sister project, SecureDMS, is an easy-to-use document management system. Take pictures of your stuff, scan it in, upload it to The Gearbase, and voila--your ownership and maintenance information is always safe. Stored on a secure server, always backed up, and always accessible. Gearbase.org and SecureDMS.net are still being developed as of this writing (1 July 2009) but watch this space for details on the launch date. |
