Aimshare describes itself as "a meeting-place for people with a common purpose". By placing a free advert on the site, users can find activity partners, "whether it is to have a game of tennis or golf on a quiet weekend or to find somebody to help crew your boat across the Atlantic". From the number of adverts, the site seems to be well-used; there is some spam, but the vast majority seem genuine postings. Ads are organised into sections covering Travel, Accommodation, Sports, Business, Leisure and Miscellaneous. Though much more than just a housing-related site, it is in this area that Sapling users are likely to find Aimshare most useful, with people looking to start co-operatives, self-build schemes or community projects. [GAS, 8 May 2006].

Site awarded a Sapling Commendation
The NextStep site has been designed to provide Minnesota Sustainable Communities Network (MnSCN) members and others with information, access to resources, opportunities for networking, and inspiration on the topic of sustainable communities. The site is certainly an impressive and useful resource, with an excellent and up-to-date range of sustainability-related resources, calendar events, and job listings. Users can also browse the information by topic, with sections covering Agriculture, Buildings, Business, Communities, Ecosystems, Education, Energy, Individual Choices, Land Use, Statewide/Global, Transportation and Water. In summary, this is a rich and worthwhile site, awarded a Sapling Commendation. [GAS, 29 Apr 2006].
