About
Readup is a social reading platform - the best way to find, read, and share articles and stories online. It's powered by a global community of readers and free-thinkers who vote with their attention. Articles are ranked by number of completed reads, instead of likes or upvotes. And there are absolutely no ads or distractions anywhere.
Readup was invented by two friends, Bill and Jeff. (We're in the comments every day!) If you have any questions or ideas, don't hesitate to reach out. We love getting emails from the community.
