RE: [Coworking] Introducing myself from San Diego, California
Thanks Jacob, After following all of the conversations you have been involved with seeing what you have done on your web site/blog, holly mackerel, we have along haul ahead. But it actually comes with no worries. I do believe it is the nature of coworking that makes the process a rather easy one.

Would there be an elevator pitch or 30 second commercial of some kind that I could use when trying to explain coworking? I seem to get so long winded, because I want to tell them all the cool benefits of working with other like minded professionals. But if you just have a few shorts moments, things seem to get lost or left out. You know the dang it, wish I would a said this or that. After the fact.
