BLOG: Digital Financial Reporting
This is a blog for information relating to digital financial reporting. This blog is basically my "lab notebook" for experimenting and learning about XBRL-based digital financial reporting. This is my brain storming platform. This is where I think out loud (i.e. publicly) about digital financial reporting. This information is for innovators and early adopters who are ushering in a new era of accounting, reporting, auditing, and analysis in a digital environment.
Much of the information contained in this blog is synthasized, summarized, condensed, better organized and articulated in my book XBRL for Dummies and in the chapters of Intelligent XBRL-based Digital Financial Reporting. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.

Cool Widget, Nice SEC XBRL Viewer
This is a cool little widget that I found. But if you look closer, it is even cooler! Click on the "View XBRL Filings" link on the top of the widget and it takes you to a nice little SEC XBRL filings viewer. It is pretty basic, but it does demonstrate some of the potential of what can be achieved using XBRL. Try the SEC XBRL Viewer out than come back and read the rest of the post.
The SEC XBRL Viewer looks like it is an implementation of the open source code the SEC made available. I could be wrong about this, but it seems to be the case. The viewer is pretty basic, but look really close at what is going on here. The SEC XBRL information is being reused very effectively. Others will come up with ideas. The sky is the limit here!
Personally, I would love to see a comparison tool similar to what the SEC had during the voluentary filing program, but better.
