Website Wink: Neighborrow

large_cup.gifWell, while you’re pouring the organic wine why not take the opportunity to get to know the neighbors? Part of environmental stewardship is building strong communities and condensing resources, ie sharing. Sharing resources saves money, time, space and helps the environment.

A website called Neighborrow is enabling that concept. You can find neighborrow-hoods, look for stuff you’d like to borrow and meet other neighborrow-ers. It is a great idea and a fun way to fulfill your interests without spending money or filling up your garage with stuff you only use once in awhile.

While local sharing is the focus, you can also trade items or give them away. A website currency called neighborrow-bucks allows you to stock up some trade and get something later. Like their website says, stuff ends up where it is valued most and where someone will make use of it.

Check it out online at Neighborrow.
