There are some really good articles on the sharing economy on the internet.
I especially like the one below from the Guardian. It describes some of the many websites in the UK that are capitalising on the sharing economy like RentMyItems.com, ParkAtMyHouse.com, StoreNextDoor.com etc. as well as giving examples of people using them effectively.
Ireland is a very small economy, so we hope that RentMyStuff.ie will become the number one website for all such renting requirements in the country.

This is a really good resource, a blog by Ken Finnegan, Chief Technologist at the IDA. We even get a mention on there for which we are very grateful.Â
