DocStoc user generated document directory opens to the public

Looking for a sample invoice, lease, will, W-2 or pretty much anything else that can be saved as a document? Online document sharing company DocStoc has emerged from private beta. We got our first look at DocStoc last month, and the service is easy to use, and most importantly, useful.

There are over 12,000 documents online so far, and they cover everything from business plans to software tutorials. You can easily read documents online, download them, or embed them on a web page.

Like other user generated content sites, you need an account to upload content. But anyone can browse, read, download, and share documents that other users have uploaded.
