Scribd - Where You Can Publish Your Works

Scribd is an Internet start up which proclaims itself to have some 60 million readers ever month. They state on their site that the purpose of Scribd is to provide a place where people can express themselves via their writings and have a built in reader base. They also say that anyone can get their works published by using their service.

Scribd also states the following information:

With Scribd’s iPaper document reader, anyone can easily upload and immediately share their original works on Scribd.com or any other website. iPaper transforms “print” files like PDF, Word or PowerPoint into web document — with all the fonts, layout and artwork that makes your document unique.

Your work can be shared with Scribd’s community of passionate readers, and because your document is indexed for search engine optimization, your screenplay, novel or even sheet music and recipes can be discovered by the world.

At Scribd, we built a technology that’s broken barriers to traditional publishing and in the process also built one of the largest readerships in the world.

So I took a quick trip around the site and found a document on how to ‘Speed Up Vista - Build Your Bullet Fast Machine With Vista.‘ This 41 page document is free to download and to distribute as long as it is not modified. This is a great way to find documents that may help students taking a Windows Vista class or to provide to clients.

Take a look for yourself and see what you think of Scribd.

Comments welcome.

Vista document is here.
