Hello! I am a telecommuter and am somewhat infatuated with this idea of getting a cowork space going near me (downtown Naperville, for those who care). I have a few questions for those who've explored doing something similar, particularly about location and finding interested collaborators.
First off, what kinds of locations have you found desirable for your communities? I assume people probably like having restaurants and other amenities nearby. What other features do people like to see? Is public transportation something people clamor for in suburban areas? I'm a big train/bike fiend, but that's relatively unique for Naperville (compared to, say, downtown Chicago). Also, where do you generally find the most interested community members? I visit local user groups pretty frequently, and those seem like a decent place to find people who might be interested. Are there other hubs of self employed/telecommuter types that could benefit from day to day interactions with smart people? Whatever insights you could give me would be great. If you're located in this area and like this idea, please let me know as well. -Kurt --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Coworking" group.
