Wired Campus: A YouTube for�Documents? - Chronicle.com
Scribd is a site that I'll have to ponder a bit more. It's a document sharing social site complete with categories, most viewed, most popular, most commented, tag clouds, etc.
A few preliminary thoughts:
*Another place to check for plagiarized papers...sigh.
*Class notes generated by professors at other institutions might be good study tools.
*It's going to have the same battle with copyrighted information.
*I'll be interested to see if substantial focused collections begin to surface in the stream of documents.
You might have trouble getting in right now - servers seem to be overloaded.
