frents.com lets people share not only their information but also real goods and products. It is the first platform that comprehensively illustrates ownership in the web.

As in other communities people on frents connect to each other, share information and communicate. In addition to that, german start-up frents lets users discover real items to debate on, to use, to rent, and to buy, thus making frents a social tool for people and their things. The ownership information is depicted on a map so that users get precious information about their neighborhood and rental companies operating in the specified area. frents enables friends to chat about their latest shopping achievements, students to exchange dvds and games, neighbors to share their vehicals, and all people to make money renting out unused things and to save money renting from a trusted renting business.

The company offers a free rental software that includes online-reservation, availability-techniques, customer-management and discount rates on a per item basis. Thus prices can be compared, locations and distance to the desired object can be checked and reservations can be easily made through the page.

As the site runs a Facebook Connect interface, registering can be done with existent Facebook logins.
