    Some design/technical solutions that occur to me:
    * Add an "or" before "Share a document"
    * Make a separate button for "Share a document" (don't like this - premature commitment, and confusion)
    * Preserve content between two tabs (either by submitting form via get on tab click, or making tab click some java script hide/show function) - my favourite

    but of course there are more

    When Paul went to do his first upload he got confused by the two tabs: he thought they were additional (write post, now shared document).

    He entered title+text in the write post part, switched to the Share a document, selected the document and entered a title+short description of the document.
    After he clicked upload, he was surprised that the "posting text and title" had been "wiped out" by the document's title & short description.

    It wasn't obvious to him that the two tabs were alternatives rather than additions.
