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.

Cheers,
Gerard

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.

  Hi Everyone,

  Alex H has finished migrating the existing coworking blog over to
  Wordpress and I have refreshed the theme (yaywww.WooThemes.com) and
  added some more bling to it.

  I hope you'll find the new format to be:

  -reader friendly
  -pretty as all get-out
  -so easy to submit a post it'll make your head spin

  Here's where YOU come in. We need fresh content to revive the blog and
  YOU are in charge of creating it. When you visit the new blog, take a
  look at the Submit a Blog Post button.  By clicking on it, you can
  write your blog post with ease and then I can push it on to the blog
  with a few simple clicks.  Easy Peasy. Thankshttp://Kapost.com!

  I'm looking for 3 new posts per week and spread over 2,400 users that
  means each of us really only needs to write a blog post about once
  every 16 years ;)

  Topics for the blog should be related to the coworking movement.  Take
  your creative license herewe need fresh content and lots of it!

  We're also taking feedback about what other elements you'd like to see
  included on the blog since there's plenty of room for expansion.

  Here's the link-enjoy!http://blog.coworking.com/
  Please post your suggestions and comments publicly on the google group.
