Hey coworking friends! My new friend Sebastian from Berlin just popped into New Work City, and in a matter of minutes has already managed to blow my mind. He introduced me to Hallenprojekt http://hallenprojekt.de, which is our essentially the thing we've been trying to build for so long-- Coworkination.
It has a big global map (http://hallenprojekt.de/?view=map) It has pushpins to designate dedicated coworking spaces versus ad-hoc locations. It lets you add your coworking space and upload a logo and add a description and address. It lets you check into a location. It lets you create a profile and add tags for what you do. It lets you update your status to tell people what you're working on. It will let you embed your Last.fm stream so people can know what you're listening to. It lets you add friends. It lets you apply for membership to a space (and lets admins approve members). It lets you leave comments on a particular space. It embeds your Twitter stream in your profile. It's clean. It's usable. It lets you embed a widget in your blog that shows off where you are working right now (see it in action on Sebastian's site, where you can see that he's checked into New Work City: http://sooth.de/) There's only one catch. It's in German only right now. They're working on translating it as we speak, but if anyone happens to be bilingual German/English and have a little time on your hands, let me know. Because this has to be ported over to English. This is awesome. Tony Bacigalupo ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------- New Work City - Coworking NYC style.
