Youtube for reading addicts
By
Apparently youtube isn’t doing a good enough job entertaining people. Millions are deciding they’d rather read stuff to pass the time? That sounds like horseradish to me!
Scribd.com is a social network for documents. Oh my. We saw book excerpts, college papers, and even corporate fact sheets. We were astounded to see that Scribd has tens of millions of readers every month with over 10 million documents published and counting. We think this could be a fantastic source for college folk doing research or bloggers in need of ideas.
Since it’s a social network, Scribd has its own community of people you can subscribe to, including famous people. When someone uploads a new document, you can be notified. So it’s like following someone on Twitter, only their status updates are a couple pages long. I think I need a nap. Plus, you can easily start your own following by uploading and sharing your documents with the rest of the community.
We were pleasantly surprised with Scribd. It really is a great place to find detailed information on whatever you’re looking or, especially if you know how to read.
