I am not a coworker but am very interested in this topic. I have worked out of my SOHO for most of the past 7 years or so now and while it's worked for me, is very convenient, can be equally time liberating and demanding - I do admit to getting ":cabin fever" every now and then - so this concept appeals to me. I also have an interest in collaborative tools which are applicable to coworking. I live in the Niagara region of Ontario Canada which relies on agriculture, tourism, vino-culture, and the auto sector for its economic life. Until she recently retired my wife owned and ran an adult worker retraining school so I know that this sort of feature may be really useful. I will therefore be casually seeing if there is any interest in the region.
Now for the self interest bit. I work for a small company called CoroWare www.coroware.com and one of my hats is being involved in our CoroCall www.corocall.com service. It provides a hosted, desktop based, HD quality, very low cost video conferencing service. It support collaboration by desktop sharing and for those who are video challenged it also includes audio conferencing. Companion products include video recording and editing, personal and logo stamping, and a secure instant messaging service (not yet integrated). We also are looking at hosting, or arranging hosting, for collaboration tools such as WiKi, subversion, Trac, and SharePoint. You can try CoroCall for free or I can host a demo - the latter is always preferred as snafus can spoil the experience.
