[Coworking] Re: Hi, from a new and lonesome freelancer!
Sounds like you guys are ready for a Jelly! If you haven't heard of a Jelly, it's a kind of informal coworking, and it can happen anywhere! There is a worldwide Jellyweek happening in January, if you want to give it a try - it is always nice to be a part of something huge! But also, you can do it anytime! http://jellyweek.tumblr.com/ Let me know if you have any questions!

Hi Andy, I'm a homeworker in north leeds, yes it has its advantages but can be isolating, let me know if you want to meet up, a beer is always good.

Hey David, I don't actually work for OBH, but I did help define the coworking offer. The Apple/Adobe certification is actually run entirely separately from coworking, but coworkers are sometimes invited to sit in on discounted or free 'taster' courses.

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) On Dec 3, 11:19 am, David Garvin **GMD** wrote: > Hi Andy, > > What happened to Old Broadcasting House?

Thanks Eric, I have had a look at that. Yes, I am thinking along the lines of starting up a group locally, there are already many freelancers in this city, so guess it would be a good idea. Thanks for the tip, the "Jelly" thing might be a way to go ...
