using a product without
needing to own the
product outright

7. Redistribute used or pre-

they are not needed to
somewhere or someone
where they are

interests are banding
together to share and
exchange less tangible

time, space, skills, and
money

• Sell services instead of products
• Design for durability and reuse
• Allow customers to talk to and rate each other
• Crowdsourcing ideas from the community

13. I'm trying to free your mind, Neo. But I can only show you the
door. You're the one that has to walk through it. - The Matrix
