Hey, My opinion: Social Networks built for individual groups never works out like we want it. Despite all of the concerns about social networks (Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, MySpace, etc.) they do have one major advantage of having a HUGE number of users. So many people are using it that is is reasonable to assume that if you meet someone on the street (or a new member comes into your space), they are very likely to have at least one social network affiliation (most likely Facebook).
That said (and more on topic) what specific features do you look for in an online collaboration tool? -Searchable User Bio's (to find people with skills you are looking for) -A messaging system (both Instant Messaging and something like email) -Video and/or Voice chatting (teleconferencing?) -Shared Workspace (multiple users editing the same document) -Shared Storage (multiple users accessing the same files) Anything else? Did I list too much? Take something away? ~Andrew Fairfax, VA IT Consultant -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Coworking" group.
