SwapTree
So, have you heard that SwapTree is going live on July 4th. Swaptree allows people to trade books, music, DVDs or video games. It's all free. The owners plan on making their money through advertisements. The website even lets users print out mailing labels and stamps so that they can send their stuff more easily.
To think about:
1. What one item would you most want to own that you don't currently own? Why would you want this item?
2. What would you be willing to give away so that you could get this one item?
3. Do you think that Web 2.0 has the potential to minimize the use of money as more and more bartering sites gain prominence?
4. Would this world be better off if we replaced money with bartering? Why/why not?

I have been looking for the ferris wheel my sister and I used to play with as kids. Unfortunately, we found it on EBAY for way too much money. Maybe I will be able to swap something for it. This sounds like a good idea to me.
