Docstoc Launches MyDocs and Sync for Online Document Management

This morning Zoho launched Zoho Docs which provides a folder structure for managing and editing your documents. This afternoon Docstoc is announcing MyDocs which is very similar in nature. Docstoc MyDocs provides a way to store all of your documents online and view them within the Docstoc service. There are folders, ability to preview documents, a full screen mode when needed and the ability to set documents as public or private.

To make the MyDocs feature easier to use and keep synchronized, Docstoc is also launching Sync. Once you install Docstoc Sync, a folder will be placed on your desktop. Any documents inside that folder will automatically be uploaded (or removed) to Docstoc providing a valuable backup and the ability to browse your documents from anywhere.

These new launches make sense for Docstoc as the more documents they have in their overall public repository, the more users they can grab from Google on search queries. Users coming from search queries could become trial users of Docstoc and eventually move into the loyal category.
