Gazhoo is a new marketplace for the buying and selling of documents of all sorts

Gazhoo is a new marketplace for the buying and selling of documents of all sorts. The content on the site is namely to offer alternatives to companies that provide documents for download with high premium costs, such as legal document sites.

The main purpose of gazhoo is to provide a place for content creators to sell their documents. You’ll find a number business-oriented documents, such as time-reporting sheets and legal documents, as well as reports and essays. Users can upload their documents and name their price for documents to be sold via Paypal. Users can offer their content for free as well. Those that would like to purchase a document can view 50% of the content without downloading it in its entirety. Gazhoo uses Flash Paper to display uploaded documents.

The site doens’t act as a community, so you won’t be able to search by user or view their profile in order to see all of the documents they’ve provided to gazhoo. Although most would liken gazhoo to a site like Scribd, it lacks many of the social interaction features that Scribd has, such as comments. There’s also no option to download a free document directly–you must first register as a gazhoo member and place the item in your cart.
