Rent it Online

How much stuff do you have sitting at home right now that you don’t use….but don’t want to get rid of it cause you might need it? Why not rent it out online? The Ebay for renting is finally here with RentMineOnline.com (still in Alpha testing). When you need a thing for 1 day out of 365 rent instead of buying and save a buck and the planet.

A good example of how this can work is landmovers. Why should everyone has their own mower if they will only use it a couple of hours a week and there is a perfectly good mover a house away? I would love to see streets organize themselves and collectively buy one mover for all residents. So I emplore those of you with needs for landmovers, drills, boats, whatever it maybe to check to rent it before you buy. The more we rent instead of buy, the less environmental impact we have.

Renting your home could save you money, especially if you take advantage of this rental rebate.

Look at The Box in Toronto

Shameless promotion (but not self-promotion) of an event happening in Toronto that looks to be really good:

The Box is a quarterly salon night that aims to bring diverse communities and audiences into an environment of artistic and social intermingling. On September 15th, the Box goes to rare heights. We’re perching atop the Wrigley building and you’re invited to a roof-party with words, performance, humour, and music. Featuring: Claire Jenkins avec band, Jess Dobkin, Karl Mohr, Motion, Mike Hoolboom, Leanda Quinquet (About the Music, CIUT 89.5 FM), Josh Thorpe, Tomboyfriend, Bryen Dunn & Jeanette Cabral (Sex City, CIUT 89.5 FM) and Steve Venright. Beverages courtesy of Mill Street Brewery.
