In today’s world the sharing economy or collaborative consumption is changing the way we do business and we socialize with others.
Some experts believe that this new trend is the next generation of the internet, which provides the social context for a peer-to-peer connections. The sharing economy is a revolution of underutilized time, space, skills and resources.
Today anyone can be a tour guide a car rental agency, a professor, offer his home as a hotel or offer other services. People can save or make money easily with web-based services that provide them with the social context to do so.
Nowadays instead of buying or renting from a company, neighbors, friends-of-friends and perfect strangers can do business with each other. Now anyone can be a social entrepreneur… virtually overnight.
