To facilitate alternative exchange and economic systems, I have opened a new site:
The Gift Economy Trading Post.
Please drop in for a peek!
Vision for the Gift Economy Trading Post Website
After reading many different books and articles on various economic alternatives, I have elected to pursue and promote living the gift economy to experience change in my life, relationships and environment.
While living these concepts since March 2009, I have found that folks I exchange with on the gift economy level are appreciably impacted by my actions in ways I perceive to be positive, expansive and welcomed.
Now, beyond providing my direct services and resources to folks across the United States, I have elected to promote the gift economy, on a limited test basis, through providing this site for others to post their available services and resources that they are willing to openly share.
The only boundary that I am enacting is that the services and resources offered and posted be provided in genuine gift economy fashion with no costs or required barter requested, or expected. I also enjoy exchanging on the barter level, and promote it as a progressive alternative to most current economic modalities, however, this site is envisioned to be narrowly focused towards the gift economy only.
Thank you for visiting and
I applaud,
enthusiastically, your interest and willingness to investigate the gift economy.
