Not that one as it closed down about 4 months ago ! Channel 4 run a similar site - 4laughs - although i think even they are running out of steam/ inclination now. But, as you say, there are hundreds of 'user content' sites out there, in fact a lot of the production companies are, somewhat belatedly, setting up user generated 'comedy' sites - such as comedybox.
Whilst i think the chances of being 'spotted' on these sites are slim, they do provide a visual means for producers and such folk to see your work. Most producers are too lazy (joke) to read scripts! Also, your 'vision' might translate better through visual media rather than hard copy. Some sketches, which are hilarious when produced, just don't cut it on paper (IMHO).
Anyway, my advice is go for it. I, and a couple of other on here, made my first videos/ animations due to BBC comedy soup. And I now write/ produce full time. So it can be done. Best of luck!
