Idea 2: Share Spaces

A Share Space is a unit that measures the space that is saved by sharing an object with the community.

In her book, “What’s Mine is Yours: The Rise of Collaborative Consumption”  Rachel Botsman uses the example of a drill to illustrate the fact that we keep a lot of things idling in our home which we seldom use (see collaborative consumption).  For instance, a power drill is often only used for a few hours per year.  As that one drill is shared using the Stuff Cloud application the potential savings in resources and space increase.
