[Coworking] Re: Coworking Day 2011

I'd love it if we could coordinate something that got coworkers out of the spaces and into the public's eye. Like a massive public coworking flashmob or something. Think about how cool it would be to show off coworking in a town square or public park or other unexpected place. People would be inter

[Coworking] Re: Coworking Day 2011

Lots of great ideas here already! A few thoughts... For the Docking Station, we were thinking of doing a few things: 1. "Pick your coworkers" for national coworking day. Invite folks from out their homes, offices, etc to work at TDS with people that they "really like to" work with (hence, choo

[Coworking] Re: Coworking Day 2011

Do any of you have videoconferencing as part of your telework center? I work at an HD videoconferencing company and was thinking of trying to have all the co working sites call into our bridge that day and then stream it on a site that everyone can see. But it would only work if there is VC capa

[Coworking] Re: Coworking Day 2011

Thanks, Mike. Yeah, I realize not everyone has H.323. The other ideas would be great. Unfortunately, I just wouldn't be able to promote them via LifeSize since, as you know, we're a competitor of some of those other products. We could have Skype users call in, but it might be kind of wonky beca

Cari- What if I were able to use an opensource proxy on our end (i.e Yate can handle the codec just fine but we'd have to do a test run a day or two before so i can tweak the script on our side so your service wouldn't know it was being sent through a SIP gateway)? As of two weeks ago i have a coll

[Coworking] Re: Coworking Day 2011

Yeah even an html5 tweetwall would aggregate anything that someone posted with a hashtag... I've seen it done for conferences (adtech), just throw it on a bot/special account which scrapes fb/twitter/g+ for the tag and adds it... thatd be easy + prob even something that you could add as a 'page' to

[Coworking] Re: Coworking Day 2011

Brent, My only concern would be for the quality of the video. Since our company does HD videoconferencing, I'd want to make sure that what we're streaming is all HD so that no one thinks lack of quality is due to our equipment. It may be a little hard to pull off right now : ( But, I'd still lik

[Coworking] Re: Coworking Day 2011

Well the video would be different for each user, regardless of if we all were on your platformi.e. me with my HD cam, you with your HD cam, then someone else with their flip-phone but i understand your concern...this would be like any other video streaming service, you're video quality star

[Coworking] Re: Coworking Day 2011

So, now that we've made our big announcements today, maybe we can capitalize on ClearSea. Let me see if I can set up a bridge to call into and anyone who wants to can call in from their mobile device. They'd have to download Clearsea but it's free. Will get back to you later in the week. On Jul

[Coworking] Re: Coworking Day 2011

Our company is testing out a 48-way bridge this week with our new software. If all goes well, I've give you all details and we can all call in on co-working day and chat about what we're doing in each city via video. We'll also stream it from our website. Links, etc. to come. On Jul 25, 2:43 pm

[Coworking] Re: Coworking Day 2011

So, the bridge thing I proposed won't work with the mobile call ins- YET. They are working on it as we speak. In the mean time, is there a consolidated list of everything that is going on for coworking day? I'd like to do a blog post on our company site and maybe have a list of all the coworking

Please, please send links to info about your events to Beth or post links here. Our company is definitely writing a blog about it tomorrow. We're a big company (www.lifesize.com) and have a large web audience, so it's a great chance to get the word out for some of the smaller coworking sites. Ha

To add into the mix, Coworking Seattle (http://www.coworkingseattle.org) is planning a fun outdoors event on August 9th here in Seattle.
