Crash Padder

Crash Padder is an interesting name for a great company made by Stephen Rapoport.  It is a profit organization with 18,000 members plus. If you have extra free space you could rent it out or if you are looking for a place to stay you can find it here and rent it.  On average the rooms on this site are 83% cheaper than the equivalent hotel.  Along with being convenient and cheap, it is environmentally friendly.  On their web page it says that the carbon footprint of the average stay is 80% smaller than a hotel stay.  Also if you want to rent out a room you would gain income along with meeting new people.  You are probably saying it is too good to be true and might question the security. However it is very secure.  For instance, Crash Padder keeps official records of your date stays and the payment to make sure there is no scamming.  Also payment is done in person for the customer so they don't get scammed and everyone has a feedback file you could look at.  Obviously, you don't have to be worried about internet hoodlums.  This also relates to the collabrotive consumption theory.  It helps save space and resources and helps you make friends and money.
