Comment by Hendrik Beune on February 24, 2014 at 2:17pm: Sorry I could not make it, for those of you who couldn't either, there is a great article about the "Sharing Economy" in the Tyee. For those of you who are interested in the new economy, which is more resilient, less wasteful and better socially connected, leading to more hopeful and more equitable future scenarios, get a preview here: http://thetyee.ca/Opinion/2014/02/17/Sharing-Economy-Hope/.
