Peter over at Adaptive Path posted an interesting internal convo: adaptivepath (Adaptive Path Blog)&utm_content=Google Reader about collaborative-consumption on their blog. Ben from AP cited Live|Work ’s motto from their old homepage…

p. You are what you use, not what you own

I like that quite a bit, and could stand to reflect on that. The next day Bruce Sterling posted a spime watch about the  NeighborGoods  re-design, a service that embodies the concept of collaborative-consumption. I have yet to use it, but will definitely fork over the 5 bucks when I move to a new neighborhood this month.

We need more of this in the world, and more of whats happening in Detroit  (via bruces).
