RecycleNet Snapshot
You can even use the Internet to reduce, re-use, and recycle. RecycleNet Corporation owns a network of Web sites that acts as an online trading system for scrap. Buyers and sellers of recyclable materials (glass, metal, rubber, paper, wood, and plastic) are brought together at the company's electronic exchange system, which uses a buy/sell/trade and bid/ask order matching system. RecycleNet earns money by charging a subscription fee for access to its service. Google pay-per-click advertising accounts for about 20% of revenue.
