SlideShare vs Myplick = Smart PR vs Sharp Service

There are a number of Slideshare competitors eg Myplick, Sliderocket etc, offering better quality and features than Slideshare but aren't able to gain massive traction. When it comes to sharing your slideshows with your friends, one site that definitely comes in your mind is Slideshare and that's why it's growing at such a fast pace.

But, the reason, why it is gaining such a momentum is not only its service but also its PR activities. Slideshare had a tough competition earlier in Slide but then it created its own space and smartly projected itself as "YouTube of Slideshows". There has been a number of web services eg.

What's that

The likes and dislikes of different people are way apart but generally most of us enjoy music (of some sort or the other) and admire renowned singers/artists and music composers for the music those guys create and help the discotheque rocking. And then, there are a chunk of people who can broadly be called as "Music Enthusiasts" (bathroom singers to singing aspirants), who love to sing and get appreciated for the passion they carry for music.
