Scribd is a website that allows you to upload and share your documents online within the Scribd community, as well as, on your website or blog. Scribd, in a nutshell is like Youtube for your documents. The benefits are that there are shorter load times for documents embedded on your site and is a great way to share your content with others. Here is a short video that shows you how to use Scribd for embedding PDFs onto your website or blog... Click here to read the rest of this post at the Your True Harmony Blog.

I wanted to give my utmost thanks to Darlene for posting this blog about Scribd. She does a wonderful job explaining in video format how Scribd works and what purpose it serves.

I really appreciate when I watch a how-to video that 'gets to the point' and leaves out all the 'mumbo jumbo-extraneous' info that is distracting when I want to really learn a new tool.

Darlene makes it easy...so much so, that I took a Social Networking PowerPoint video I made for LinkedIn and uploaded it to Scribd. Simple, just like Darlene said!

I added the slide show to my site with a few clicks and saved the ftp hassle, which was just what I needed since I had spent so much time on the presentation as it was and needed to move onto other projects.

So Darlene, thank you so much for offering this wonderful tool. I also used Scribd for a pdf. When something is so easy to do it just leaves more time to figure out the best places to post.

Here's the result.

I just had a situation come up where Scribd is the perfect solution for a very do-it-yourself oriented client - and thanks to Darlene's post, I had the information I needed to help my client implement that solution.

Just wanted to second Janine's 'thank you' and give this thread a bump as well!
