At YouPublish anyone can publish any kind of file, including CAD of course. It’s also cool because when you publish, you can decide to share it for free, or sell it for whatever price you set. Check it out at http://www.youpublish.com

Scribd is a first-rate tool. After a thorough review of how it works, I signed up.

As a senior technical communicator, I’ve done usability testing for years and find this tool to be one of the sharpest in the shed. The graphic user interface is clean, simple and easy to use.

I also do volunteer civil defense work. Scribd will be a tool we will use in the civil defense area much like Twitter has been added as a tool in the tool kit. I love this: http://www.scri...vacuation-Guide and will add the Volunteer Mobilization Center as I think it will be useful to civil defense professionals.

Their designers aren’t exactly innovating – can anyone say mixx.com? The scrolling block up top, the header fonts and colors, etc. Look at those and then go to mixx.com – hmmmmm…

I do like the design though, but they should give some credit to mixx – I’m sure they are behind the scenes.

Heck they even coded their site so the text can’t be resized. I guess they just don’t want to do business with people that wear glasses.

If the text were any lighter or any smaller it would be invisible.

Maybe all of these sites should figure out how to enable embeds into Wordpress. Then I’d be impressed. And if they do enable WP embeds and I simply can’t figure it out after umpteen tries, then someone please set me straight.

The logo looks very bad. And the site does not look very good also. It has the spacing and that’s it.

Well done Trip and the team, looking good. As TechCrunch has previously reported, we (www.twidox.com) are working on a similar site but with heavy focus on academic texts, reports, data, statistics and so forth; basically anything that help others with their work, learning, teaching and research. We are in private –beta right now, so feel free to check out http://www.twidox.com and register for a private-beta invite.

I personally am a big fan of docstoc. I obtain many professional documents from docstoc, mutual nda’s, agreements, etc…

Jason Nazar is great ceo and they have some very strong backers and board members that will ensure incredible growth..

Plus, NeoHire has their back..

Keep cranking guys
