Re: [Coworking] Re: How did you find your coworking space?

[Mike Pihlman]

I drove around town, found a few I liked, then my wife made the final
decision.  :-)

Most people get to me now via Craigslist or my physical sign on the
building.

We found our building on Craigslist.  I know people who have used brokers
before and that can be a good way to go.  They usually get paid by the
landlord, not you.

Re: [Coworking] Re: How do you effectively track hourly members

[Jacob Sayles]

Our system, Nadine, gathers network information as well but we don't use it
for billing.  We specifically use a manual sign-in at the front desk for
billing and we use the network info to send gentle reminders if someone has
forgotten to sign in.  We also don't do hourly as we are all about getting
people to be relaxed and present in the space, not rushing in and out.
 Since we only do the day, there is no need to sign out.  This is the best
way we've found to balance out a number of different factors and
situations.

[Coworking] Re: How did you find your coworking space?

[Soleil Onoya]

Hi Karina,

Have you tried searching for co-working spaces at http://www.sharedesk.net? 
They have a solid number of listings there. When I started living in 
Vancouver and needed a place to work for a few weeks, I found Suite Genius 
(http://www.sharedesk.net/spaces/view/1644/suite-genius/) through that 
site. 

Before heading in, I also made sure to read people's Google reviews of the 
space to make sure it's the right environment for me.

Hope this helps!

[Coworking] Re: Academic Coworking

[Tamara Acosta]

Hello, I am about to open the first Coworking Space in Mérida, México and 
before opening and preparing everything I investigated on the internet 
about thesis, papers and so on. I found this particular link really 
interesting as it focused on condensed information a lot of 
research. http://makingspaceforothers.com/

I am also interested in how to make an ecosistem from the people that is in 
here to the common welth of the ones that are outside of the coworking. For 
example we are traying to build this cowork of coworking + education. So we 
want the education that happens here some how descetralices and some of the 
workshops are somewere else in the city, the exibitions of the workshops we 
want them to be also desentraliced so we can get support from other places 
in Mérida and not everything has to happen on our place. 

Also other dilema that we are thinking is how can we, some how incubate 
creative projects and bring them here to be solved and the question is: How 
do we make the election of the coworkers that than can develop the project? 
how do we charge for this? How can we dinamise the projects to be on group? 
Do we have to leader the creative projecto? Does this have to work some how 
as an underground agency? 

This questions are really around our heads but I believe one day the 
community is open I hope they get answered. 

Have a nice day and keep in touch,

Tamara
