Re: [Coworking] NJ Coworking opening March 1, 2010
Big congrats Steve! NWC will be organizing a field trip out to visit you guys and celebrate. Regarding the system/management needs, we've gotten by for over a year now on Google Spreadsheet / PayPal type things, which of course entail a lot of constraints, but have allowed us to operate lightweight and get up and running quickly. Up to you where the balance is. On Sat, Jan 16, 2010 at 9:44 PM, ConvergeNJ coworkin...@gmail.com wrote: Hi fellow Coworkers!

I've explored a few systems online taht might be decent options. And of course, there's the hobbled system of Google Cal, Excel, Paypal, etc. which would work for a little bit I'm sure.

What do you use for online registrations and reservations? Did you build your own? If so, do you offer it as a web based solution to others?

Re: [Coworking] NJ Coworking opening March 1, 2010
we are 4 months in and good old fashioned spreadsheets have held us up nicely. we use a sign in system, which we put on a spread sheet, for meeting rooms we have a paper diary, allowing us to change it quickly. we want to create an online system, but the time/money to install does warrant it yet.
