What Tools Exist for User Published Content?

Posted by Cliff on from the welcome-to-the-noosphere dept.

wbav asks: "Recently there's been a trend to user published content. A couple of examples of this trend include Wikis, Podcasting, Blogs, and the resulting RSS Feeds. Last night I was asked if any other similar technologies exist. As I did not have a good response, that is my question to the slashdot community. Are there any other similar technologies which deal with user publishing that I have not mentioned?"

  1. Lulu by emaveneau · · Score: 3, Informative

    I'm surprised more people aren't mentioning lulu. You upload, they sell & distribute. Damn simple way to get all the "long tail" content out there.

    Here is a typical example of the content I'm talking about. It's a great film but the distribution is so far out of the scope of the creator that it just isn't worth investing in a personalized eStore, advertising etc.
