Re: Market Idea

Hi guys,

generally like the idea very much.

However, food for thought:
We have seen many offers/wishes kind of sites:
in innumerable time banks, local and barter networks,
the flowplace, etc.

They tend to become static and not used...

Why should this be different with this proposed approach?
And how would people find other's needs/wishes in a P2P network?
