Should TFN develop its own brand?
Clearly TFN has lost the battle to own the word freecycle. I wonder whether anyone would be upset if they just went for a new website with a new name, such as WWW.TFN.ORG. I just think that that would be a great act of generosity on behalf of the TFN board that would resonate throughout the community. Go for it, you know it makes sense. You would gain so much kudos, you could not lose.

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.
