I have been reading various posts today that say that Freecycle is no longer the grassroots organization it purports to be. Once upon a time, local people were encouraged to start up groups but now I am hearing that these groups are being taken away from them and ownership is being retained by Freecycle in order to move them across to their new site - whether mods and members like it or not. Can anyone shed any light.
Answer:
As of *today* July 19, my Freecycle still comes from Yahoo Groups, is still locally moderated, and most certainly still serves the local, grassroots purpose of keeping stuff out of landfills by making it easy for people to pass stuff on.
Perhaps you could identify the info sources suggesting that Freecycle is changing. News to me...
I don't know. I keep hearing that they are moving away from yahoo to another hosting site.
