[Coworking] Re: Coworking Canberra take #2

2009-12-04 Thread Nathanael Boehm
Hi,

We met with the office leasee today and had a long chat about
coworking - the outcome being that he's keen to proceed, so all we
need now is to get people in there! Well, we do need furniture like
desks, chairs, lounges etc - I'm following up some possibility
sponsorship or grants to provide those so it'll be a few weeks till
the space is operational.

But, we now have a coworking space in Canberra!!

It's a little bit out of the way .. just behind the shops in Mitchell
so probably only useful for northsiders. There's also a chance of
another Canberra company hosting a coworking space more central mid
next year so southsiders, hang in there.

If you're interested in using the space either as a casual drop-in,
ongoing casual or ongoing with dedicated desk then please register
your interest with me as I'll be coordinating the use of the space for
the first month.

Cheers,

Nathanael Boehm

[Coworking] New Coworking location - New Kensington, PA

2009-12-04 Thread r...@hbv
Hello, My name is Rich from HBV LLc. located in downtown New
Kensington, PA (just east of Pittsburgh, PA.

My brother Joe and I have been working to create approx. 8000 sq ft.
of space dedicated to Coworking (Co-working).  We are at the very
beginning stages of beautifying but is very usable; in fact, we
currently have our studio seeing some action.  Our current goals are
to concentrate on needs as they arise.  I look forward to gaining
knowledge from this discussion group to create a great community work
space.

Our location includes: Permanent space, community space(s), conference
room(s), rest rooms, vending area, lounge w/ electronic games, storage
and studio room.  Other amenities include: 24 hour video surveillance,
electronic key card access, parking and more.

We hope that many independent workers will find our space useful and
choose to join and assist in our creation.

Thank you.

Re: [Coworking] Hmmm, a Foursquare badge for coworking...

2009-12-04 Thread Tara Hunt
Awesome!

Maybe a coworking badge for each city that would be called:

Laptop Warrior (?)

And if you hit coworking in multiple cities (maybe 3+), you would be:

Digital Nomad

[Coworking] Boulder ideas

2009-12-04 Thread Amanda
Hello!
I am representing a group of people living in Boulder, CO with a
desire to develop a space downtown that can serve as a hybird art
gallery, host of lecture series/classes, and a co-working space. We
currently have a small gallery but are wanting to make the transition
early next year. Was curious to see what other out there are doing.
Warmly,
Amanda

[Coworking] Hmmm, a Foursquare badge for coworking...

2009-12-04 Thread RobKelley
So I was thinking about promoting coworking through a foursquare
badge.   Foursquare.com is the game that gives you and your friends
points and tips for checking into places around town.

I thought coworkers and coworking makes for a good badge.  But I
really don't know what to call it or the rules around it.

So I thought I'd put it out for crowdsourcing, both for ideas and to
generate support.

1. What's a good name for a coworking badge? They're usually funny.
2. What should be the rules? one checkin at a place? checkins at
multiple places?

If you know the answer and don't like this messy collaboration thing,
you can go straight to the man:
http://foursquare.com/suggest_badge

My first thoughts:
---
1. Coworkout! (3 checkins at places tagging "coworking")
2. Stick figure dashing with laptop

Hi everyone,

I wish to open a coworking space eco-friendly in Paris, I named this projet
*The Office* or exactly The (Green Coworking) Office. It will respond to
entrepreneurship, crisis and sustainable environment. But I need partnership
in order to well establish the project, build a nice website, find coworkers
and rent an office in dowtown Paris. So, everyone who wants to take a part
of it is welcome.Right now the blog of the project is
http://theoffice.typepad.com/

King regards,
David William

[Coworking] Re: Hi from a new and lonesome freelancer from Leeds!

2009-12-04 Thread Imran Ali
Old Broadcasting House is still up and running with one of the largest
coworking communities in the UK - around 50 members now. The site's
currently under redevelopment, but there's some info at
http://www.ntileeds.co.uk/co-working/.

I run a monthly networking and coworking event at Old Broadcasting
House every month...people can meetup and mingle in the morning with
free coffee and cake as well as use the coworking facilities
throughout the day for free (have a peek at 
http://opencoffeeleeds.eventbrite.com)
