Publish and share documents with Scribd

Monday May 19, 2008
scribd If you're looking for a place to find:
  • Free sheet music
  • Free eBooks
  • Art, maps, poetry, research, fan fiction, etc.
Well, then - you'd better head on over to Scribd, a "free, web-based, document sharing community and self-publishing platform that enables anyone to easily publish, distribute, share, and discover documents of all kinds." You could think of Scribd as your own personal library on the Web. I've already found some great piano sheet music that I plan on downloading and trying out today!
