So, you’re in college, living it up, enjoying your little freedoms away from the homestead. You want to have some fun, once in a lifetime deal, right? However, the semester starts and you have to spend all your savings on books.
No more money for going out, for food, for new clothes. Really, you’ve gone into starving student mode. Not the fun you imagined. You could just skip the books, take decent lecture notes, and fake the rest, but you might find yourself in trouble along the way. And that is precisely why there’s Pazap, the student book exchange. This little 2.0 start-up lets students trade and sell books without any fuss. Pazap is customized for your campus; books are categorized by subject, and you’ll even get an SMS when your book is sold. To register you’ll have to select your state and uni. Once you’ve done that you can post and sell your books or find the books you need. Joining is free, of course.
