USynk.com – Vote for the Best Instructions

USynk.comUsynk uses the Pligg CMS, which is better known as Digg cloned. Users submit items, news stories, articles, whatever, and they vote; top items get front page coverage, the rest sinks down and is forgotten.

Usynk is giving us a somewhat different take on the whole Pligg phenomenon. Users submit examples, demos and codes in the form of audio, video, and regular text instruction. The audience votes for the best examples—the one which gives the most detailed, or most relevant and easy to understand explanation. The one that gets the most votes wins for that particular step. At the end all the voted steps will be made into a free e-book. So far, published items have to do with Javascript and PhP.

“Usynk helps to synchronize your knowledge in a particular field with that of the experts in that particular field. The best way to learn, in my opinion, is by learning through examples. Usynk allows you to submit and view; examples, demos and codes created by the best. And in true Web2.0 fashion, Usync allows you to vote on the best example.”
