I'm confused is this not what scribd does ?
- netghost 16y agoI actually met one of the guys from crocodoc a couple of months ago, nice guy. The headline isn't very accurate. My understanding is that they let people annotate pdfs and share those annotations.
- jamesbritt 16y agoYes, it's quite slick. I've been building a Ruby library for it and I'm using it as part of a conference management Web application. The annotations part is really nice, makes it very handy for reviewing technical papers.
- endergen 16y agoI've been using scribd for a pretty big Slide deck. It takes enough time to upload/convert on scribd that I usually go do something else while I wait for a new version to upload. With Crocodoc it was fast enough that I didn't mind watching it process. My doc took about 1 minute for Crocodoc versus 7-10 for Scribd. And they do HTML based rendering in PC browsers which I believe isn't done by Scribd yet. I think they have it going for Mobile Phones but not for PCs. Correct me if I'm wrong. I like Scribd still I'm just impressed with what Crocodoc is doing. I haven't even gotten into their annotation system which is what they are most proud of.
