YouPublish

I came across this press release about YouPublish, a new file-sharing site where users can publish pretty much anything (free or paid). You may or may not have already heard about it, but I just wanted to share in case you haven't.

The press release lists some of its functions:

YouPublish enables users to:

- Post files — free or paid. YouPublish users control if the files are free or paid, as well as the price.

- View most files directly in the browser before downloading them. This patent-pending technology allows easy viewing of 28 different file types including video, audio, text documents, PDFs and photographs.


- Group files together into a single product or list so related files don’t get separated. Grouping files also allows mixed formats to be linked together, such as a textbook and a lecture video or a song and the accompanying lyrics. It also allows posting a multipart video or linking chapters of a book so users are never stuck looking for the next part.


- Download original, unconverted files for offline use. This allows distribution of high-quality video, audio and photographs, as well as files that cannot be viewed online, such as software plug-ins or proprietary file types.


- Create personal author pages and unique URLs. With these custom pages, it’s easy to share works with others and invite friends to the site.


I haven't had the time to play around with the site yet because I just found it, but it seems pretty cool!
