Alrighty, the new blog has been launched for 2 days and 242 of you have visited it yet there is a dearth of discussion, feedback and new blog posts. What's holding you back?

Thanks for the hard work, Angel and Alex. I looked over our blog for posts to contribute, but most of them are very specific to our space. For example, an event recap, or new amenities. Am I correct in thinking that these are not appropriate for the coworking blog? I guess I am saying that we do not post a lot about broad coworking concepts. Next time we do, I'll be sure to submit it though.

Gerard, I think you hit the nail on the head. Unless it's of broad interest, promotional material shouldn't make its way to the blog. Ideas, experiences, case studies...thats what we're looking for! Of course, if you do something interesting and it's a huge success (or failure) and you want to share because you think it'll be valuable to inspire others, that's a good fit too. -Alex /ah indyhall.org coworking in philadelphia On Thu, Sep 16, 2010 at 12:44 PM, gerard @ Cincy Coworks helloger...@gmail.com wrote: Thanks for the hard work, Angel and Alex.
