Free Knowledge Store

2006

Every time when I see there is a newspaper in a trash can,I would stop for a while.It makes me wonder whether a used newspaper should be thrown to a trash can.Normally,it is right because a used newspaper is just a trash.But a newspaper isn't just a paper,It's a print and there is lots of information.Meanwhile,it's knowledge.It should not be treated as trash.

Usually newspapers and magazines are one-off products.When you finish reading them,you would throw them away or pile them up.You would hardly read them twice or again and again.But when your friends come,they may be interesting in reading them.So when they have no use for you,It doesn't mean the same for the others or Someone Else.

People like read newspapers or magazines when they are waiting for something ,especially when waiting for buses,trains, flights, and etc.You will find many people are reading when go to a station,but not all people.What are the other people doing?Why don't they buy newspapers or magazines to read?They don't like?If there are free newspapers or magazines for them,what would they do?I don't know what's the accurate rate but I'm sure some of them are very like if there are free newspapers and magazines supply in a station.Because I see many people are asking strangers beside for sharing newspapers or magazines.

Because newspapers and magazines are one-off products and fast reading materials,it's a good idea for people to share newspapers and magazines.So the "Free Knowledge Store" is a station for people to provide and get free newspapers and magazines.When you buy a newspaper when waiting bus,after finish read it you find it's no use for you anymore,you put it into the "Free Knowledge Store" for someone else, and at the same time you find a magazine you like in the "Free Knowledge Store".You can take to read it until the bus arrive or you can take it and read on the bus and give it back to another "Free Knowledge Store" in the next station.So the "Free Knowledge Store" is a live network.It can be built in the public place like bus station,subway station,park,school,and etc.
