[...] が、言いたいことはわかっている、Scribdのことだろう。違いは、Twidoxがデータ、統計、学術文書、論文など市場のハイエンドに特化していること。また、研究機関との直接協力のような形の古いユーザーにはさほど重きを置いていない。Twidoxはこれまでに、国連の人身売買反対のグローバルイニシアチブ（UN.GIFT）をクライアントにすることに成功し、現在はヨーロッパの大学への進出を狙っている。面白いことに、英国にも似たようなことをやろうとしているedocr（ここにレビューがある）というスタートアップがあるが、edocrは未だ十分な支援を得ておらず、むしろビジネス向けを狙っている。 [...]

Our campaign started when we were featured on both TC.com and TC UK on 18th October. Here are some stats:

On 18/10/07 – 242 hits from TC + 53 from Crunchbase
Up to now – 418 hits from TC + 275 from Crunchbase

Many other blogs copied the TC story (mostly without adding any original content), which resulted in edocr attracting users from 147 countries with US contributing 56% of the traffic.

This month alone we had 68,103 hits. The impact of TC on our traffic figures are negligible, but the show started when edocr was featured on TC.

We expected significant traffic from TC, in thousands, but at the end it was less than 700.

Our figures are based on Google Analytics, which differ from compete.

We are still in Alpha and will continue to be in Alpha until we have the required functionality to generate revenue. Yesterday, we opened special interest groups. Let me know if you would like us to setup a group for you. Later on, you would not need our involvement to open a group.

Looks good, Manoj.

I’ve had a quick browse and it seems to work well. I suppose this is going to have the same problems as YouTube when it comes to copyright, although it should be easier to detect copyright violations via text analysis.

Looks cool, there is a lot of opportunity in this market and it’s always nice to see more than one player in any given space.
