Great coverage. I'm impressed the reporter did such a good job.

(Although the video didn't come through running Firefox on a Mac it
did work in Safari.)

I must admit I worry about being co-opted by corporate entities. I've
been a part of, and helped organize a number of different social and
political movements over the past 40 years. I'm continually surprised
at how quickly and effectively money-making entities, helped by
national media, are able to dilute and capitalize on our vision and
work. The silver lining is that the world changes a little bit for the
better when it happens.

Let's see how Time or Newsweek portray coworking. That used to be the
bellwether for co-option. Now it's probably ABC/CBS/NBC nightly news.

It's fun and worthwhile no matter how it goes. I'm impressed that much
of the vision gets understood in these news stories. It's a good sign
for the future.
