Docstoc is trying to become a YouTube for documents geared toward professionals.
Docstoc’s CEO Jason Lawrence Nazar told us the idea for docstoc originated while working on his other venture, Venature.com. Venature provides consulting and capital to startups. Jason would often spend two hours/day looking online for documents the startups needed such as forms, NDAs, etc. He wondered why there wasn’t something like YouTube for documents. In September of 2006, he decided to make it himself and Docstoc was born.
Scribd is another site aiming to become the “YouTube for documents.” However, it is not geared towards professionals like Docstoc.
