GoodNewsForPolarBears.org   
Dave Ingram, Founder   

I loved Freecycle but I stopped using it because I got too much email for irrelevant stuff.  Why couldn't Freecycle be more like ebay; but for free stuff.  We set out to create a 'better freecycle' with images, a better search, location maps, feedback, alerts, and more.  Instead of 'bidding', you say you 'want it', then the giver chooses the winner on merit.     http://goodnewsforpolarbears.org
