Jonathan/Alex- Would there be a possibility to allow them to "tag" the space
with terms that describe it?  You could prepopulate some terms as part of a
check box or something ("open", "collaborative", "hip", "artistic", etc.)
but then allow them to choose a few of their own.  Or maybe them only
choosing one word to describe the space would be better. "If you could
describe this community in one word/phrase, what would you say?".  Then
allow the terms to describe the space as part of a tag cloud based on the
users submissions.

 

Just a thought.

 

 

Thanks & God Bless,

Subject: Re: [Coworking] Coworking Registry Profile Wireframes

 

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

Wow - looks great!  I like alternate 2 the best - seems to have more
breathing room.

What's the tall vertical box between the ads and the space photos for?
