Neighborgoods is an online community where you can share, sell and buy goods from folks in your own hood. A great solution for Los Angeles where both budgets and storage space are sometimes tight.
Users can setup profiles and easily list various items they’d like to lend out, sell or even give away. Transactions are then tracked through the site which adds a nice layer of security to your dealings. I don’t know about you, but lately Craigslist has been giving me the heebie jeebies. Having a feedback loop that shows a profiles transaction history is really nice to have. Being able to do deals with local friends who are already part of your social graph is even better.
Founded by local radtrepeneur Micki Krimmel, Neighborgoods has been in running in private beta for the last few months. Today however it’s open to anyone with a Los Angeles zip code. So our lalaland based readers you can now signup and get started.
Micki took some time sit down tell us more about the site. Lets see what she had to say.
