Peer-to-peer renting services focus on specific stuff and commodities. TakeSpinlister, a fresh initiative from Los Angeles that enables people to earn a little extra money by renting out their bicycle. Besides offering cheap bicycle renting opportunities in any city in the world, Spinlister also connects the worldwide bicycle riders community. Even for renting luxury recreational vehicles such as boats, sport cars and even planes there is an online peer-to-peer marketplace called Qraft. In addition, Campinmygarden offers private gardens as micro campsites. Parkcirca does the same for parking spaces in crowded cities.
Mmm camp in my garden sounds nice. :)
Using the crop mob model as a spring board, I realized I could ask my community of friends for help with some tasks I’ve been wanting to get to. To that end, a handful of pals will be dropping by my place this coming Saturday, anytime between 3-6, to help with an assortment of yard tasks in serious need of addressing ever since this past winter’s blitzkrieg. We’ll work, and chat, and later we’ll feast, dining on a scrumptious meal provided by my stellar cook of a husband. In turn, I’ve offered to help my buddies in the future, should they find themselves in need of an extra set of hands.
