[Coworking] Re: Ideas for flexible mail delivery?

2015-12-10 Thread Liane Jackson
Question:  There have been some other threads with comments about how 
letting businesses use your space address as a postal address is not good 
for Google search.  That it somehow infringes on their location services 
and possibly causes SEO confusion.  Does anyone have thoughts on this?

[Coworking] Re: Locking doors system

2015-05-28 Thread Liane Jackson
Craig - whatup from Chicago :)  I have the Schlage lock and have been 
pretty pleased b/c it's very easy, user friendly and intuitive.  I use the 
Nexia bridge to control it.  Remote unlock, lock, delete access, setup 
access times, etc.  All very affordable and intuitive.  Can be controlled 
from your phone.  The only issue for me is the 30 code limit.  I'd rather 
not have members sharing codes so that it's easier to track access, and who 
has been in and out (if needed).

 The Lockstate one gets awful reviews on Amazon for a variety of models. It 
 doesn't seem like they have the durability and quality standards when 
 technology is involved. However, the Shlage Connected devices get high 
 reviews but uses z-wave technology and limits codes up to 30. This is not a 
 bad thing but it will require some more setup time and a Z-wave bridge to 
 be purchased. Not a big deal but plan on adding $100. In total the setup 
 will costs about $350.

 I talked to members and they seem fine with the 30 code limit because our 
 3500 sq. ft space can only have up to 70 or so members. This just means 
 that every doesn't get to custom their own code and there will be two or 
 three people using the same code. If I need to change or take away code 
 then I just have to do that and change it for people. Members don't feel 
 like this is a big deal and it probably isn't.

 It's a balance of what I truly want and what I'm happy to pay for. $350 
 verse $1500 to $2000 seems to my balance.

 A while ago we set up a Slack team for coworking leadership - all the 
 folks involved in owning and running a coworking space. Last month we had a 
 slackathon where a bunch of us all over the globe met up and talked about 
 all sorts of things coworking related. LOTS of QA and sharing of ideas. It 
 was so much fun we decided to make it a monthly thing, so introducing... 

 *Fourth Friday Coworking Slackathons!*


- 4th Friday of every month
- 1pm Pacific/4pm Eastern - ? (when it's to question mark you know 
it's a party)
- https://coworkingleadership.slack.com

 Joining the Slack group is invite only (I wish Slack actually had a 
 sign-up option), but every member is set up as an admin so if you leave 
 your email address here, anyone who's already in can send you an invite. 

 This Friday Feb 27th is our next one. See you there :)

[Coworking] Re: A universal symbol for coworking

2015-01-13 Thread Liane Jackson
The Noun Project has a couple of coworking symbols that are free to use:

http://thenounproject.com/search/?q=coworking

There was another one cool one there that I don't see anymore, that I 
uploaded more than a year ago that has two people typing with a shelter 
over them.  You can take a look at it in my Dropbox link here:

 Hello. I'm thinking it would be interesting to be a universal symbol for 
 coworking. So you can easily identify coworking spaces in general. As there 
 is with pharmacies, schools, police, etc.

 I believe a symbol can be useful to better spread the concept. As recently 
 done with the Bug Heartbleed: 
 http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-04-28/the-branding-of-a-bug-how-heartbleed-became-a-household-name.html
  
 as well as the W3C made with HTML5.

 The idea is a universal symbol, distributed free of copyright. In a quick 
 study made a proposal. Is attached. Maybe some more talented designer can 
 propose something better.

 What do you think?
