Not only do I know the Freelancers Union, but I talked about them in many of
our coworking meetups to many people whilst in Austin.

I was starting to talk with Ohad Folman, the CTO of the FU last summer about
coworking/FU partnerships, but I dropped the ball when I got busy in the
Fall. The health insurance angle is really enticing.
