Who is interested in copartying and connecting it with coworking? I am a member of New Work City (in NYC) and spent many years in Ann Arbor, so I am friends with the co-workers at workantileexchange.com. Back in the 1980's I was also part of "small systems group" an early coworking experiment that emerged from the local MacTechnics users group.
After I recently provided DJ/VJ services for a KeenKong launch party at New Work City, I decided to register copartying.com. I'd like to see it end up containing information about cooperating to be "really" social (i.e. in person, not just virtually social). >From 2002 to 2005, I ran a monthly networking party in Ann Arbor called "Network Downtown," usually in the offices of some tech start- up. I was the web master, host, head chef, bartender and DJ/VJ. People really took the the work spaces and galleries, that we used for our parties, as an alternative to the bar scene. And it what continues to be a down economy, many of us in start-up companies do not have a lot of money to spend in bars and restaurants for our social events. >From the cost effective use of making a space multi-purpose to the notion of taking control of our social space the way coworking is taking control of our work space, I'm interested in what others think about this. - dr.ron On Feb 20, 2:55 pm, WHERE MMM <where...@gmail.com> wrote: > nice idea... they are looking at various forms of media outreach... we are > the NEW generation. > > On Sat, Feb 20, 2010 at 11:49 AM, Steven Heath <she...@gmail.com> wrote: > > On 21 February 2010 07:18, resourcesuites <dan...@resourcesuites.com> > > wrote: > > > i would like to suggest Coworking: the NEW generation. let's cross > > > over the bar, not compete to raise it. > > > Bring on Pepsi as sponsor? > > > -- > > Steven Heath > > Director, Foxbane Consulting > > Founder, AltSpace > > Cell: +64 21 706-067 > >www.foxbane.co.nz > > Level 22 > > Plimmer Towers > > 2 Gilmer Terrace > > Wellington > > > AltSpace.co.nz <http://altspace.co.nz/> - Shared office space in > > Wellington for home based > > workers, freelancers, or nimble companies > > > -- > > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > > "Coworking" group. > > To post to this group, send email to cowork...@googlegroups.com. > > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > > coworking+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com<coworking%2bunsubscr...@googlegroups.com> > > . > > For more options, visit this group at > >http://groups.google.com/group/coworking?hl=en. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Coworking" group.
