Welcome to our first roundup of recent links showing some of the great things going on in the making, sharing and collaborative consumption spaces:
MAKE Magazine is holding their first annual “Industry Maker Awards” a.k.a. The Makeys. You can see who has been nominated and vote for your favorites!- We love this self propelled, solar powered chicken coop/tractor and hope our friends at the West Seattle Tool Library make a few.
- Read about what will be the most sustainable office building in the world (aside from “the one not built”) – it broke ground this week. We have a soft spot in our hearts for the very ambitious Living Building Challenge.
- The Atlantic has a great introductory article to the Sharing Economy. It talks about the important of access to “stuff” rather than having to down things.
- Want even more news and links? Check out the most recent link roundup from Shareable Magazine.
