Hi Carsten, I will be pleased to put the Survey up for the next "What we're Talking About" on the Coworking WIki;
I will also be needing a new Blog post for the GLobal Coworking Blog at the beginning of next week and would be pleased to featuyre the survey there as well if you have a blurb about it lying around? :-) Other concerrted efforts to get the word out (a tweetstorm or similar) I would be pleased to talk about with you; possibly we could ask all the partners adn associates for Open Coworking to talk abotu it? How's your timing for the promotion?. It's been a hugely valuable resource for the community and we woudl love to do it.
