  • Foodlab Detroit Fosters New Business Paradigm, Jobs   9 hours 41 min ago

    ahh the food. after reading your post, I just wanted to grab something to eat. But seriously, the food business is one of those ventures that require some skill, in my humble opinion. For example in baking, unless the owner knows how to bake, if your baker takes a sudden absence, your whole business will collapse.

    My wife liked making so much so we opened a cake shop. When see got pregnant, she can no longer bake and I didn't know how to do it either. we ended up closing our store.

  • The Rental Economy 2.0   1 day 19 hours ago

    Point well made about "Sharewashing"

    Sharing is being thrown around now as a term in the mainstream media as if it was always synonymous with renting something out over the short term. This always seems to be the case, where the wolf in sheep's clothing co-opts and corrupts a term through the sheer bullying force of using the term in the mainstream media often enough, until it is accepted to mean something else.

    AirBnB in my humble opinion is not and has never been a sharing site. It is a hugely vulture capital funded business with the sole intention of becoming the first billion dollar "Sharing" company and it has many counterparts that fit this model, wrongly being referred to as Sharing sites. Its function is to merely to provide a peer to peer conduit, exploiting the current economic circumstances, where there is strong demand for short term rental requirements alternative to the hotel system. I am not against their business model, but it rubs me the wrong way to call it SHARING. This peer to peer model is one where the owner of the model has found a way to monetize the transaction on both sides, something that is very attractive to Vulture Capitalists. I heard Yerdle mentioned. Yes this too is polished because it is also venture capital funded, which always makes you wonder where and when they will extract the bottom line from.

    Building a community of people who are greatly community minded, on the altruistic basis that you are going to try to help meet their needs, has great benefits to companies that want to eventually sell to them directly or indirectly the things that they cannot find in sharing. Having started a site that is intended to meet the needs of all people on the planet, I believe there is a happy and truly altruistic medium to all people's requirements. We don't have to build it, it is already there. Using sites like Neighborgoods.net, energeticxchange.com and yes even yerdle in conjunction and directly with our existing communities in our social media circles, our neighborhoods and even extended family, we will be surprised just how many of our needs can be met and how many of our community's needs we can meet, while at the same time having a rich and meaningful interaction with these people, that just might result in something unexpected.

    Thanks for the article.

  • The Rental Economy 2.0   1 day 20 hours ago

    A good question, and thanks for juxtaposing the two articles, because they provide slightly different perspectives. Gorenflo seems to be both more critical overall, and more optimistic at the same time.

    Kalamar’s argument is essentially that the over-broad use of the word “sharing” to describe renting, working, etc., cheapens the coin and the appeal of the word, stealing some of its appeal and threatening to derail the project of developing a new economy based on sharing.

    Gorenflo, in contrast, suggests that the corporate economy is governed by the cyclical appeal of buzzwords, which means that once their short attention-span has lost interest in the “sharing economy” as a trend, they will move on, leaving the rest of us to continue going about the long-term project of building a more sustainable society based on cooperatives, peer-to-peer networks, etc.

    There are different implications from this as to what kind of threat “sharewashing” poses to sharing in general. Either:

    a) sharewashing saps the energy of the sharing economy as a project, turning it into a marketing gimmick to sell the same old market relationships under a new guise; or

    b) it’s just a temporary and somewhat laughable trend, and when it wanes, this will reveal the corporate world’s lack of any real dedication to sharing in the first place, leaving the rest of us to keep on sharing as we will, long after AirBnB, TaskRabbit, etc., have found newer, hipper ways to market themselves.

  • The Rental Economy 2.0   2 days 37 min ago

    Interesting article on "Sharewashing", reminds me of an article written by Neal Gorenflo (cofounder of Shareable) on the death of collaborative consumption http://pandodaily.com/2013/03/19/collaborative-consumption-is-dead-long-... this leads to the larger debate of "what exactly is the sharing economy anyway?"

  • Airbnb Explores Whether “Sharing” Appeals to Late Adopters   2 days 5 hours ago

    Interesting - 16% of people actually sharing sounds low, but 15% is a rule of thumb for when memes reach critical mass. Once mobile phones got to that level of market saturation, they were at 80% in a couple of years.

    Perhaps we're much closer to truly breaking through than we think.

  • The Rental Economy 2.0   2 days 17 hours ago

    Hello Mike. Nice article, I have the same feeling about the "you can rent everything" platforms : you never find anything that you need enough close or conveniently, a specific one about outdoor items could really work (I'm thinking about ski... I just moved to switzerland and everyone has its own material, it's pretty expensive and I borrowed some, could be convenient even for one week-tourists to find someone close-by and rent it directly from him/her)

    I guess it's too early to think about business model but I just happened to read about a jointventure Patagonia had launched: http://www.businessweek.com/articles/2013-05-06/patagonias-latest-produc..., could be a great financer for your project ;)

    good luck !

  • I've Seen the Future of Higher Ed...And It's Shareable U   2 days 22 hours ago

    There is a vast difference between University attempts to become more sustainable, and the mission of "sharable" which might be simplified as economic reform. There are exceptions but I believe that the behavior of Universities in general reinforces many of the outcomes that sharable and similar movements are trying to overcome. There is no fundamental reform in the econ departments of major U's, nor Business schools, nor departments of planning and urban development, and nary a budge in Poly Sci. These silos of convention and status -quo are inhibiting the movement from making the kind of core, evolutionary change that all of us desire and require. The irony of the activities that you highlight are for the most part in spite of the institution they dwell within. Where for example were the institutions of higher ed during occupy activities?

    Imagine a set of teach-ins, not unlike the activity that permeated higher ed during the anti-war, civil rights movements, concerned with matters of new econ, and the implications of the sharing society. That might instigate the shake-up of a lot of conventional departments, hind-bound and trapped in the past.

  • I've Seen the Future of Higher Ed...And It's Shareable U   2 days 23 hours ago

    Will, the campus sustainability movement underwent an evolution over time from a purely physical plant-based set of activities, to campus life, to integration into curriculum and core mission. I think one interesting thing about the emergence of sharing as a philosophical and operational approach in higher ed is that it is bubbling up simultaneously on so many different levels. What seems to be missing is any sense that these different levels are connected to each other.

    I agree with you completely on EdX and other marquee MOOC projects -- remains to be seen how open they will remain. That's one reason the OER movement is so compelling in my opinion.

  • The Rental Economy 2.0   3 days 22 min ago

    I'm glad, at least, to see some distinction being made between the "rental economy" and the "sharing economy." A more precise distinction needs to be made going forward. Car-sharing runs a fine line between renting and resource sharing, but most of these other services (AirBnB in particular) do not truly fit under the sharing economy umbrella, and are really examples of "sharewashing:"

  • I've Seen the Future of Higher Ed...And It's Shareable U   3 days 37 min ago

    The beauty of this is that "sharable" was actually conceived as a broadening of campus activities. I think a relevant point to add is that the experience students are having while on campus ought NOT to be forsaken on graduation. Here the life lessons that will serve them for a lifetime are in place. If only the curriculum contained these ideas. At best they are considered non-credit ancillary ideas.

    Caution re edX. This corporation, seeded by Harvard and run by Larry Summers, while no cost now is being groomed as a start up and for profit center for the future.
