"If you’ve heard about companies like Airbnb, Zipcar, Skype, Uber,
Getaround and Lyft, and you know a bit about crypto-currencies, you get
the picture. The “sharing economy” is just as exhilarating and vexing as
the Web 2.0 meme was nine years ago."

Via Muse, who wrote: "Excellent article about the two sharing economies:
the one that is exploiting people and the one that is helping people to
trade even when they don't have access to capital."

Share and enjoy,
