Prullenbakdeling met Dumpster Drive

Waarom ook niet, een digitale kringloopwinkel, maar dan slechts met gratis items? Dumpster Drive maakt het mogelijk:

When we throw out physical trash, we know, at least on a subconscious level, that it often has the potential to be repurposed. Someone might rescue an abandoned book from a dumpster, or fall in love with the musical tastes of another through a discarded CD they find on the sidewalk. However, the drag-drop-delete process of deleting data from our computers prevents them from ever reaching others. Dumpster Drive makes your trash social within the context of your desktop, allowing you to dumpster dive through the discarded files of others.”

Vooralsnog alleen als Mac OSX-applicatie te downloaden, maar de software is open source waardoor versies voor andere platforms ontwikkeld kunnen worden.
