From the site: "The first time you get back a book, video, tool, etc. - Lent pays for itself."
This seems like a questionable remark to me. Who's to say you would have forgotten you lent the item out without Lent? I nearly feel offended as my memory is quite good.
I could see myself using this if I lived in a dorm with a lot of random people who enjoyed mingling in my room and I was a collector of material goods.

- aik 17y agoI agree. I guess my main point was that an app like that could spread like a virus if placed in the right hands within a tight community like a college dorm. At the same time, it seems a little anal/nerdy to take a picture of an item before you hand it off. "Yeah you can borrow that, one sec though, let me take a picture of it and document that you were the one who borrowed it." It needs to be as simple and effortless as possible.
