A 'Big Shift' from the 20th century, a time defined by hyper-consumption, to a 21st century age of Collaborative Consumption, is underway.

Collaborative Consumption describes the rapid explosion in traditional sharing, bartering, lending, trading, renting, gifting, and swapping redefined through technology and peer communities. collaborativeconsumption.com

It is the subject of a new book, What's Mine is Yours: The Rise of Collaborative Consumption, by Rachel Botsman and Roo Rogers.

    Merci à Rachel pour ce concept mais qui n'est pas encore très utilisé (vélos, voitures, monnaie alternative etc..)en France. C'est un modèle économique que les consommateurs plébiscitent pour des raisons variées mais il y a encore beaucoup de résistance. Mais nous sommes optimistes.

    Jct: Absolutely, accommodations-trading is the best way to barter but as for keeping score, In 1999, under the UNILETS Time Standard of Money, I paid for 39/40 nights in Europe with a timebank IOU for a night back in Canada worth 5 Hours (1 Ithaca Hour = $10US) which I recorded on my public do-it-yourself timebank account: johnturmel.com/unilets.com
    Will your traders take my Hours if I take yours?

    I agree that we are in the middle of a very significant social and cultural change, as a tinkerer, DIYer and all around practical person, this is just common sense, it's about time.

    Great ideas here.
