One simple e-mail to a few friends turned Deron Beal into a recycling machine!

Beal created Freecycle, a global Internet recycling network, in 2003 and the site has since spread like wildfire.

Freecycle allows members to post messages about a wanted or offered item, and other members respond.

There are 4.2 million members within 4,212 groups on the site and Beal says it reinforces the old adage, "one person's trash is another person's treasure."
