+The Right Move at the Right Time
“A global trend to make sharing something far more economically significant than a primitive behavior taught in preschool, spawned by a confluence of the economic crisis, environmental concerns, and the maturation of the social web, an entirely new generation of businesses is popping up. They enable the sharing of cars, clothes, couches, apartments, tools, meals, and even skills”.
