3 more groups leave
I know I have been largely silent, but other projects have distracted me. Or perhaps I have just broadened my outlook. Anyway the head honchos at TFN who send out C&D emails have been fired and new ones put in their place. The new ones are getting busy now checking on groups and playing the same old nasty game. I wonder how long they will last in the nasty chair?

About
Stemming from my experiences of giving and receiving items through the concept of Freecycling, this blog is a critique of the industry known as the “gift economy”. I started out as just another freecycler, then moderator. Then something happened that propelled me into being a movement activist. Much of what is written concerns the controversy surrounding The Freecycle Network (TFN). There are many articles referring back to the origins of the company, and indeed events that led up to its creation. This is therefore an activists blog.
If anyone sees anything incorrect please let me know and I will do what I can to correct them. Any errors and omissions are mine. All comments are welcome and indeed if anyone wishes to suggest future topics, or other sites related to the subject of the future of freecycling please tell me now, not tomorrow.
Returning freecycling back to the movement.
