Hmm... Money is always tight hehe, but the first idea sounds like we
could actually manage doing. 80 bucks also sounds like an awesome deal!

I dont know if anyone is using it, but they're pretty cheap to set
up. If money is tight and tech skills are good, buy a reader from
Dealextreme.com or ebay. Figure 80 bucks at most. Buy a crapload of
cards for 50-100 bucks. write an access/mysql database to track card
use. the readers simply act as a keyboard, so write a page where the
writer keys in the digits on the card to a field which then pulls up a
record from the db. add a digicam (webcam) and have pics of the
members in the database to make sure cards aren't being passed around.
If money is not so tight, there are plenty of systems out there for
not much money. But it might not do exactly what you want. Tradeoffs.

I'm pretty sure weve discussed this topic a couple of times, but
in case, I was wondering if any larger coworking spaces use swipe
card systems like you would use in a gym, in order to track
members usage. We are looking into this as we have 80 shared
members and growing and we think this will help us keep track.
Asking members to track themselves just wont work for us in this case.
