Issuu Alternative? Spotbit.com
*Important Update [2010/6/23]*
Check out my latest post on document sharing site here.
Do you have free ezines, ebooks, etc. to share with the world?
Spotbit.com will turn your ebook (PDF, MSWord, JPG, GIF, PNG, zipped file) into a downloadable .exe ebook that will look like this (see below):
With Spotbit.com, you may recreate the flip book “Issuu-like” reading experience OFFLINE and FREE!
You may also sell your ebooks through their platform (I believe it’s also free to sell, but you may want to read their FAQ for further details). Note: Registered users will be able to download paid ebooks, but they will need to enter an activation code, which they will only get that after they pay, to read beyond the first few pages. So, don’t worry about that, it’s not a system bug.
One bad news though, the hyperlinks within the .exe ebook are not clickable, so make sure you print out your url clearly in your ebooks.

Similar to Scribd – Yudufreedom.com
Scribd Alternative – Yudufreedom.com
*Important Update [2010/6/23]*
Check out my latest post on document sharing site here.
Do you want to publish your documents or ebooks online and let your readers virtually "flip" the page while they read as shown in the screenshots below?
(Regular pdf files would look like this. To see it in action, click on:
http://publishing.yudu.com/Freedom/Aoezl/MakeMoneyWithForex/ )
(Magazine style ebooks will look like this, pretty nice huh)
You simply need to upload your file to Yudufreedom.com, they’ll send a file viewing link to your email 13address after they finished converting your document. You may then send this link through email or add it to your post or web page.
It is a cool service but I admit it has its downsides too:
1. You cannot embed the document inside your post
2. Download option is not available to free publishers
3. Hyperlinks (actual URL and email addresses) are displayed upon mouseover and are highlighted when you open the page
Number 3 may or may not be a bad feature depending on your intentions. For some, it may be better than Docstoc.com where readers cannot distinguish between a blue underlined but unclickable URL and a clickable live link. And since Yudufreedom enables clickable links, it is better than Issuu.com (at least from a document marketing point of view).
Last but not least, if you want to give this service a try, don’t upload anything too personal because they don’t have a delete option yet…(I understand that if you don’t publish the links, it’s extremely hard for others to find your documents, but still don’t try to upload anything that you don’t want others to see).

How to Use Free PDF Converter Neevia to Solve A Scribd’s iPaper Conversion Problem
How to Use Free PDF Converter Neevia to Solve A Scribd’s iPaper Conversion Problem
Updated 2009 July: If you have reached this post because you would like to download free ebook (in pdf format) from scribd without registering/logging in or simply put, if you are looking for ipaper to pdf converter or trying to convert ipaper to pdf, please read this post! Otherwise, please continue your reading here 
Some Scribd users may be familiar with the following conversion problem after uploading their documents to their Scribd account:
The characters cannot be decoded/converted properly during the ipaper conversion. Although this problem can be resolved by having the readers download the document to local drive, but then what’s the point of having this ipaper feature if the document cannot be displayed properly online?
You may have used a free pdf converter called Neevia before. Do you know that you can upload a pdf file and let Neevia convert it into an "ipaper-friendly" pdf version? You don’t have to change any settings, just leave everything at its default values (see screenshot below) and hit "Upload and Convert" button.
Neevia’s free pdf converter has also helped me resolve another iPaper conversion problem that I experienced before. It seems that Scribd has just upgraded(?) so I’m not sure if that problem still exists. It’s about iPaper rejecting pdf files, displaying an error message saying that the pdf may be password protected, the file was too big, etc. even though I know that my files aren’t.
