Freecycle
Freecycle is a grassroots, nonprofit movement of people who are giving and getting stuff for free in their own towns. Members post offers of items they'd like to give away or requests for items they'd like to receive, everything from furniture and appliances to garden tools and bikes. The items shared are all freely given, with no money exchanging hands.
Hubzilla
Hubzilla is a decentralized social networking platform built on web server software called Elgg. It allows users to own and control their own data and social interactions without relying on a centralized service. Hubzilla supports privacy-enhanced features like OStatus and Zot for federated social networking.
