Great idea.
A few suggestions however....
The copyright should be current as of July 28, 08 it says 07 on the bottom
and..
users should be able to see some example and more before getting the huge sign-up prompt on the front page..

Like the sleek interface personally, it was really easy to get up and running. Sadly though right now, not many people have found this site. Only like 8 people in my city and its surroundings. (Raleigh/Durham/Cary).

aren't there already a bazillion sites like this?
Someone needs to up the neighborhoods apps on Facebook and turn that into local swapping.

This is similar to Freecycle, or where I am it's called Freeshare. How is it an improvement. On Freeshare, I offer items and if someone responds, or several persons respond, I make an arrangement for them to come and take whatever it is I offered.
