I think coworking is reaching a place that transcends office space and doing work on computers. If you go back in time a little ways you'll see that "coworking" actually came out of more of a rural way of life. Entire communities would come out to raise a barn, finish a quilt or shuck and put up corn. The ladies would have sewing or soap making "parties" where the more experienced women would teach the younguns the tricks of the trade and everyone would go home with a new dress and some fresh soap.
The only thing that really sets modern day coworking apart is that we engage in it with more regularity and not just around specific projects but all day, every day. So, my question to you is what are many people in your neighborhood doing separately that they *could* be doing together? Angel On May 13, 9:39 am, "Mark W.
