Just discovered "freecycle.org" -- which MITites would think of as a "reuse list for the rest of us". It's pretty much like what it sounds like: a list for announcing stuff you're trying to give away. No sales, no barter. There are "local chapters" around the world, including lists for Cambridge, Somerville, Arlington and "Boston Metro West". The actual lists are on yahoo.com.

Craigslist (http://boston.craigslist.org/zip/) has a pretty similar section.

I found my bed's boxspring there.
