Some more clarifications: - If you are new and haven't already read this post<http://dangerouslyawesome.com/2010/02/coworking-com-the-next-generation/>, I recommend you do so. - The former owners of coworking.com have been paid, in full, their asking price. - The kind of money we're talking about raising from individuals this time around is not in the $250/$500/$1000 range like last time, because last time, we had a limited time window to achieve the goal. This time, there's a much more open window, so we could do something like 200 x $50 donations. Possibly even less if more people get involved. - There is NO REASON to stress your financial situation, personally or your business. - Again, not being able to contribute does not make you any less of a member of this community, and contributing does not make you any more. It is simply an opportunity to *be a part of a snapshot in time, a single event.* Please do not over-think it. - This process doesn't explicitly include everyone in the future, but it also doesn't explicitly EXCLUDE people, either. Again. Snapshot in time. There will be other projects/needs/initiatives in the future related to coworking if it continues to grow the way that it has, and my hope is that they're organized by someone other than me, and that whoever's around then can be a part of it. - There's no boat to be missed. Relax. *Focus on making your coworking communities awesome, not on some theoretical future fate of an internet domain. *
