      <image:caption>It was time-consuming. In addition to the driving, scrolling Facebook Marketplace and messaging filled up good chunks of the day. Had we ordered from Ikea and assembled furniture, however, I’m not sure we would have saved much time. We watched one of her roommates’ families do just that. It was great teamwork, but not necessarily a quick or easy task. The use of technology was a blessing and a curse. The platform provided access to a large array of items and connected us directly with sellers. But it was Facebook (enough said). We could have perhaps used other platforms, like Buy Nothing (which I’ve used in San Francisco but requires a membership to add locations) or Curb Alert Somerville (which we learned about later and is a Facebook group). However, our initial success with Facebook Marketplace and waiting for responses kept us locked in there. Regardless of the platform, scrolling through items on our phones was mentally draining. Looking at so many things in rapid succession, much like general social media use, is tiring. Having to respond quickly to messages was hanging over us for those couple of days. The dopamine rush kicked in, too, keeping us coming back for more…just one more scroll, let’s see what we can find!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - A Collective Impact Approach for Transportation in San Francisco (7/11/18)</image:title>
      <image:caption>In San Francisco, over 50 percent of trips are completed by walking, biking or using transit. Our streets, however, are heavily congested with automobiles used by commuters; parents taking children to school and activities; and residents and visitors running errands, shopping and traveling to recreation. The congestion in our streets has been compounded recently by the surge in Uber and Lyft vehicle trips and ecommerce delivery services. The presence of car traffic throughout our city diminishes the livability of our communities and our quality of life.</image:caption>
