Top Professional & Technical Online Document Sharing Sites!

By Amarendra Bhushan for CEOWORLD Magazine Updated:January 23, 2009

Content Sharing sites have seen a boom not only since the Youtube mega-deal. But why the hell do we need documents sharing? I think, Sharing in this way is social networking of office documents. Remember how Wikipedia was being used by every PR agency in the world to upload their clients information until the site said they no longer want PR agencies to contribute.

So with Wikipedia gone, is it the turn for the document sharing sites to be the next target for PR professionals and webmasters in their attempt to gain more visibility about their clients, brands, and sites. Let’s wait and watch.

Google Docs

Google Docs allows users to share and collaborate around documents. From a document reuse perspective, the Google Docs Templates is of most interest here since it makes hundreds of different templates available for download. These templates were created by Google and others in business community.

Microsoft Office Online

Microsoft Office Online contains hundreds of reusable templates available for download. The site allows users to submit self-created templates and to share with others. Templates are searchable by Collections (e.g., real estate, back-to-school, and travel), by Category (e.g., address books, balance sheets, and itineraries), and other search functions.

Zoho Share

A straightforward utility for sharing word processing documents, spreadsheets, PDF files, and slide shows. The online app reads in several popular document formats (although not yet the .docx, .xlsx, and .pptx files from Office 2007), and of course Zoho’s own documents. It creates embeddable viewers for all of them. Users can comment on files, just as they can on other sharing systems.

Scribd

Scribd is very similar to DocStoc, except that it’s targeted more toward individual users. Scribd claims that it’s the largest document sharing community with over 17 million people per month viewing documents.

Edocr

Edocr is most useful for publishers who want to expose their publications prior to release or for businesses who want to generate leads with their sales propaganda.

Gazhoo.com

Gazhoo.com (a Scribd company) is a content marketplace that allows users to search for documents, preview half of the content (via Flashpaper) free of charge, and download in full for a price set by the content creator (the seller). For each transaction, Gazhoo.com extracts a draconian fee of 30%.

Bookgoo

Bookgoo is geared more toward document collaboration than reuse. It allows you to upload, annotate, highlight, and collaborate with your offline docs in an online way. It’s particularly useful to students and teachers.
