I agree with Jerome on Alt. 2. The biggest thing I continually see missing from directories like this is a sort of sense of humanity - physical attributes are useful in determining what you DON'T want, but make it hard to differentiate between one space and the next once you know what you DO want.
Is there any room for fields that allow members (and possibly even visitors) to describe the space's members (or perhaps an idea of industries represented), interactions they've had, activities and associations, etc? I'm trying to think of a listing on this directory more like a "dating profile" where I can get a sense of the personality of a space and its members beyond "how many desks it has". Maybe comments serves that purpose to begin, but I'm wondering if anyone has ideas for other ways to elicit these kinds of non-physical attributes and store them along with the directory listing? -Alex /ah indyhall.org coworking in philadelphia On Mon, Jan 31, 2011 at 8:34 PM, Jerome Chang <[email protected]>wrote: > Wow - looks great!
