81'x10'? Sounds like you might run into ADA issues if you're not careful. Will need a 5' turning diameter unless you have two exits. Bar height tables also don't look ADA friendly unless you have other comparable areas for the disabled. Try mixing up the type of seating. Jerome _

Call a local contract furniture dealer. They have the greatest buying power and can direct you to a product that gives the best bang for your buck. Any major furniture line will list who their dealers are by region or city on their website. Each dealer has access to over 300 manufacturers in

IKEA, Costco folding tables, Salvation Army, Habitat For Humanity ReStore, Harbor Freight Tools, Can you attach to wall? Get MDF Door blanks and big shelf brackets. Go to Lowe's or homedepot, look up interior doors, Flush/Luaun style doors. Slab doors essentially. Cheap as dirt, shelf brackets

Re: [Coworking] Re: Stories of Coworking

Thanks, Steve - I think you're 100% correct in your assessment of the current situation. My hope is that by working together a bit and coalescing some coworking story data, we can help get some of the more interesting (and new!) stories out there to the press. Getting annoyed by a story is one thi

[Coworking] Re: Stories of Coworking

Susan: I think the NPR story is in part a function of the amount of press coworking has been getting. As a topic gets more coverage (and coworking's gotten a lot of coverage over the last 6 months), reporters and editors start to look for new angles and hooks to cover. This is due to reporte

Re: [Coworking] Re: Stories of Coworking

Thanks, Will! Might what you're talking about fit under the "coworking love stories" portion? I just edited the category description there - let me know if that helps you out. And thanks so much for the suggestion! I certainly don't want to miss out on any great stories. Thanks for sharing, Susan

[Coworking] Re: Stories of Coworking

Three questions/comments about the stories: 1) You've probably answered this already, but: Will the coworking space owners get a collection of the stories submitted by their members so they can use them to help tell their own space's stories? It would sure give the space owners an incentive to en

[Coworking] Re: Stories of Coworking

Hey Susan, The form you created looks really great. One suggestion if it's still open for a small change: In our space, I think, the best stories have been about unexpected collaboration between members and the value that comes from that. Even though you have a lot of story categories and I'd ha
