Great post, Jonathan! #4 is a particularly important point that I've seen a lot of people miss over the years. We've gotten so much support & great ideas out of the Seattle Collaborative Space Alliance <http://collaborativespaces.org/> and I know others would say the same. Working with other coworking spaces in your area is one way to really walk the talk when it comes to coworking. We encourage our members to get to know one another and support one another, we can easily do the same with our fellow coworking spaces!
