EddyTools : Cutting edge Web Development

scribd is a site where you can store your document eg doc, ppt, pdf, xls, etc and share them with others
Scribd hopes to increase user engagement by getting users invested in the activity of their friends and the figures they admire
Profiles have also changed. Not only does it display your pictures and recent documents, but it provides a public feed of your activity –
once again, like Facebook. More information is on display, including your interests, what you’ve been reading,
and stats like the number of followers you have. And in the middle is the “scribble box,” which is nearly identical to the Facebook publisher box.

The entire thing is a social media makeover. Scribd is trying to break down the walls between documents by encouraging users to become
friends and comment on documents.
