Hi,
I'm new on the group. Got here after an amazing conversation with
Chris Messina in London (thanks again).
I'm looking for existing experiences of coworking in London and/or for
people who'd like to create a new one.
Also, my current dayjob (http://www.headshift.com) already has offices
but we're bound to get bigger ones soon...  you'll never know ;)

Cheers,
  Rick aka Bru

Hi Rick,

I spoke to Chris a few days ago, and I've also emailed Brad with
questions on how HatFactory has implemented their anchor system
(waiting to hear back).  I think we'll probably end up with different
types of Coworking space in London, from those that are communal and
collaborative in spirit, to more commercially-minded ventures.  I'm
more interested in the former, but happy to explore across the
spectrum.

If there are other independents who are serious about this, we should
meet to discuss what our goals are and discuss what kind of commitment
we're willing to put in.  We also need to explore the type of
community/business models which are realistic for London by analysing
the existing Coworking spaces which are in operation.

If you guys would like me to post a call on the coworking blog, lemme
know. We have a number of blog authors already, but I can volunteer
for the copy-paste job. ;)

Thanks Chris,
I think before that we should have something to post :)

But why not doing that (deciding) now? Let's have a first meeting sometime
next week to discuss the topic.
My proposal is either thursday at 18.30 at the Market Porter (
http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/london/pub/1n82z8u/the-market-porter) or
during the MiniBar on friday (http://upcoming.org/event/129563/).

The former if we want to have a chance to talk, the latter if we hope in
some snowball effect ;)

Cheers,
  R

We could do a quick introduction to Coworking (I think we're allowed 5
minutes at Minibar) as a call to arms, and to see how much interest is
out there.

Is the Market Porter ok for you? here's my mobile just in case ->

Rick,

Sure, the Market Porter is fine, I know where it is...

The BusinessWeek article is worth checking out:
http://blog.coworking.info/2007/02/26/coworking-in-businessweekcom/#c...

I think we could just give a quick talk/intro and why we're
interested, rather than a formal presentation, and then just chat to
people who are interested.    Perhaps take a copy of BusinessWeek with
us, so people can look over the article/pictures.  It really helps if
people can visualise the different models in play, and see that things
are really happening, rather than coworking just being a neat idea.

Hey guys,

Unfortunately I managed to miss the first meeting.. will deffo be
round for the next though.

We've (New Bamboo - http://new-bamboo.co.uk) got offices in Caledonian
road and have a space desk with space for 4-6 people. It's a shame to
see it go to waste. We're toying with the idea of inviting people in.
We've got a couch and a Wii :). Preferably Ruby on Rails developers,
but we're open to anything.

I wonder, anyone interested (or do you know anyone interested?).

Maybe give us a call or come along to the next OpenCoffee morning and
we'll have a chat?

Damien,
Sounds interesting.  Any pictures of the space?  How about hosting a
one-off Jelly type event?  For example, pick one day and get
interested coworkers to work from the space. It will be a useful
experiment for all involved, and will at least get things rolling in
London.

Simon, Riccardo - That sounds like a plan... maybe we'll think up a
date for next week.

There are in fact some pictures up on flickr. Basically the room has
for areas: our desks (4), sofa/coffee table, meeting table and then
another oval white desk with space for a comfortable 4.

I'll be in London from March 13th for about a week - and back again
towards the end of the month. I'm in CItizenSpace so if you wanted to
ask me in person about the experience it would be fun to meet up. I
also might need a place to get some work done for a few hours ;-)

How about meeting on the 15th at the Googleplex in London?  We get a
laptop friendly environment, a chance to speak to others about
Coworking (would Linux hackers/freelancers interested, any specific
needs), and give Ivan a chance to beat the jet-lag.

It's most likely that Ivan can't do that day, so it may have to be the
