But I've run quite a few giveaways and this one had the lowest response of any I've done.
Giveaways never work. Seldom people enter those things anymore. You can't go by it. Most Giveaways now are done with rafflecopter app I think is totally bias. So I don't even try any more.

All it takes for Scribd to pretty up their app and for some real positive reviews and they would have alot of new people. Right now Oyster has them on Publicity. When in the mainstream no publisher world news when a service like this is mention it's always Oyster. They call Oyster Netflix for books. Scribd needs to up their marketing but it would do no good if they app doesn't work well for tablets.
