I have shared documents and also found basic contracts on there that I have used, all for free.

But I consider the revenue model for products like XinXii (german service) more meaningful than DocStoc: uploads for free, downloads must be purchased – price established by author.

A quick search on Scribd and a couple downloads later, I had a few templates to check out.

Competition is always good so DocStoc should definitely result in better products for both. I am a little concerned about small businesses sharing documents. I certainly know that there are lots of documents I would NOT want to put on the web for my business.

In the past I have put my presentations from conferences up on Scribd and intend to upload whitepapers.
