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.

Thanks again,

Scott,

 

You'll find that it gets easier to explain as you find your own identity.
If you could hear how I sounded two years ago when we first opened Office
Nomads, and compare it to how I talk about what we do today, it would be
very amusing.  Try out different things and see what sticks, and what feels
right to you.

Maybe it's more keywords to use. Collaboration. Community. Space. Shared

Howdy Co-workers,
Just thought I'd drop a note to introduce myself.

I'm Morgan Sully and I run programming, marketing and partnerships for a new
media Lab http://macsddiy.posterous.com/  at Media Arts Center San Diego. 

What I love is that it's in my neighborhood
http://macsddiy.posterous.com/results-from-our-google-mapping-workshop-0
(I live half a block from work), I get to work with friends (we're
partnering with a local FabLab) and I get to work on developing innovative
programing for the space:

*   Google Mapping Workshops
*   Online Fundraising for Your Creative Projects
*   New Media Show and Tells (part of the http://SHARE.dj global
network)

The Lab emphasizes learning and making through digital media. 

We're in seed stages right now, but I'm really excited to solidify our
operations to make this a sustainable, collaborative resource for my
neighborhood.


Cheers from Golden Hill, San Diego,
Morgan

We've just recently been discussing such a definition here on the list but
thus far the consensus is there is no consensus. It turns out coworking
means too many different things to too many different people so clearly it's
impossible to define.  

 

Explain it however like; coworking means whatever you want it to mean.
