Beginner’s guide
The objective of this blog is to highlight great initiatives that use the internet to impact our real offline life. Technology is never as great as when it transforms the way we meet, exchange, interact, collaborate,…in real!
If you want to start somewhere: you should read the book “What’s mine is yours”. Rachel Botsman and Roo Rogers did an amazing job at conceptualizing the “collaborative consumption” movement.
“Collaborative Consumption describes the rapid explosion in traditional sharing, bartering, lending, trading, renting, gifting, and swapping reinvented through network technologies on a scale and in ways never possible before”
Examples include: eBay, Airbnb, Zipcar, etcÂ
