John Pearce on 02 Dec 13"Hands up if you've ever bought a bread-maker or a surfboard only to find it sits gathering dust. If you've got unused resources or don't want to fork out for something you might only use once, collaborative consumption could be the answer. Thanks to the global movement there are now numerous ways to share, rent or swap. Websites bring people together to share meal preparation (mamabake.com), rides (jayride.com.au), offices (hubaustralia.com), clothing (clothingexchange.com.au); holiday accommodation (airbnb.com), skills and knowledge (weteachme.com) and all manner of stuff (freecycle.com)."
