At Scribd, we’re focused on creating the easiest, most fun reading experience online. For two years we’ve listened to your feedback, pounded Red Bulls, and tinkered away. Today we’re excited to announce the first major redesign of Scribd’s popular document reader.
Key improvements:
Simpler navigation – Clearer options for reading in dynamic “Book,” “Scroll,” and “Slideshow” modes, expanding to fullscreen, and downloading a file. You can also manually resize the entire reader in a fun, “Apple-like” way by dragging the bottom right corner.
Better in-document search – New, pop-up search tracking displays each mention of a particular word or phrase and takes you directly to the relevant passages with a single click. Learn whether a book or article contains a specific topic in mere seconds.
Instantly share your docs on Facebook, Twitter, and embed on other sites — Share “What you’re reading on Scribd” with your Twitter and Facebook friends without losing your bookmark. Quickly embed your favorite documents anywhere across the Web.
For now these updates will affect Scribd.com documents only, but we plan to extend the redesign to Scribd embeds soon.
Let us know what you think!

Is there an easy way to add a doc, from someone else, to a group from the document? I had to switch to the old viewer to do so!

I thought Amazon’s search system was bad, but Scribd’s is far worse. Even if you put in the EXACT NAME of a book you know is on Scribd, it won’t find it.
Please Please Please!
When will you people start supporting djvu files? There are tonnes and tonnes of files and thesis that can be scanned and distributed as djvus! For example, the easiest way to distribute handwritten notes would be to use djvu files!
Please please please! Can’t you make it soon? How much change of code does it require, compared to a makeover? Maybe a codec touchup?
How can I include a scribd doc in my scribd group?
It looks awful! The feel and vibe is gone. It seems more difficult now. How do I switch back to another view. No, no, no…
Select “Read in Classic Mode” at the bottom right if you’d like to read a document using the older version of our document reader. Thanks!
On July 11th I complained about their not being a way, in the new look and feel” to add docs to groups. After getting no response, I had to figure the “read in calsic mode” trick on my own. Now after over two weeks you tell us.
It just goes to show that the scribd-team is not serious about customer service/complaints. It is a sad situation when a very useful service becomes unfriendly towards its users.
