We're a Drupal studio. If planned well the site can be both aesthetically pleasing and self sustained. (Drupal is the # 1 opensourse CMS)
Sorry to hijack the thread but only for a bit; I just can't let that assertion stand unchallenged! :-) Drupal is not the #1 opensource CMS, WordPress is! It's got far more users than Drupal! ;-)
Anyway, I'm a former Drupal guy who after 2 years finally realized how much pain Drupal was causing me and switched to WordPress, never been happier! :)

Wordpress is a blog platform that can be used as a CMS, not an actual

Just teasing.
Thanks Alex for stepping up and putting all that time in, teh awesome

We realize there's more users - I wasn't counting users, rather considering the overall expandability and multifunctional use of a website tool. It's not the easiest to use as a developer, but once you get it, it is robust! Just thinking if you want to create a community environment and build on a more robust tool, Drupal's great. We love Wordpress too!

Yes mine was some as light hearted teasing as well. Glad you took it as as such. :)
Still, "many a truth said in jest" as they say. I really have seen people have a lot more difficulty getting Drupal projects completed vs. WordPress projects and then training users to understand Drupal is yet another complication where it's pretty easy for users to get WordPress. As way to explain and a rule of thumb I tell prospective users that the minimum WordPress project cost they'd pay a local consultant for a professional design and a bit of custom functionality developed in PHP and/or jQuery is about $2500 vs. the minimum Drupal is around $10k. Drupal typically makes the first 85% easy but the last 15% can be very difficult (and hence time consuming/expensive.)
FWIW a year ago WordPress didn't have the feature set needed in core+plugins but does now. A partner and I are actually launching a conference in Atlanta called "The Business of WordPress" to highlight how to use it for local businesses in part because I want them to see how effective it is now.
Jacob Patton
on, Alex, for wrangling the domain purchase.
I long, long time ago, I had a minor hand in the Coworkination code,
and I still have it kicking around here somewhere. If I may provide
dev help in resurrecting a Rails-based community component of the
site, I'd love to do it.
well done, all.

I'm the guy that too www.ignitionalley.com from PSD to HTML to Drupal
to custom-built members area with Freshbooks and PayPal integration. I
know Wordpress pretty well too and am really platform-agnostic. I'm
glad to lend my talents wherever needed.
I'm actually in the process of selling one of my companies (final
paperwork went out today!), so I'll have a glut of free time to be
able to help in the coming weeks :) I also have a design company that
I'll be focusing on, so I have a whole group of guys to fall back on
as needed.
Let's build something awesome!

I am part of this...
The web site will help me greatly as I now have a way to show people in
Tracy, CA that coworking is not just in my imagination, but, something
that is worldwide, supported, and real.
Moving forward, although I try to explain Coworking on my pages, a video
or several videos (along with text for those of us who still read) on
the central site would be awesome.
Thanks again...as soon as I can contribute...I will.

The new coworking.com points to the google group, the wiki, and the blog. It defines some explicit activities that people can do at each of those places to get involved.
I think this stake in the ground is extremely representative and lets us go ANY direction we want.
The design is the product of...well...an hour of my time put in to copywriting and CSS. I'd be just as happy to throw it away if something else came along and the group suggests that, so long as the general concept stays clear.

I am a member of New Work City (in NYC) and spent many years in Ann
Arbor, so I am friends with the co-workers at workantileexchange.com.
Back in the 1980's I was also part of "small systems group" an early
coworking experiment that emerged from the local MacTechnics users
group.
After I recently provided DJ/VJ services for a KeenKong launch party
at New Work City, I decided to register copartying.com. I'd like to
see it end up containing information about cooperating to be "really"
social (i.e. in person, not just virtually social).
From 2002 to 2005, I ran a monthly networking party in Ann Arbor
called "Network Downtown," usually in the offices of some tech start-
up. I was the web master, host, head chef, bartender and DJ/VJ. People
really took the the work spaces and galleries, that we used for our
parties, as an alternative to the bar scene. And it what continues to
be a down economy, many of us in start-up companies do not have a lot
of money to spend in bars and restaurants for our social events.
From the cost effective use of making a space multi-purpose to the
notion of taking control of our social space the way coworking is
taking control of our work space, I'm interested in what others think
about this.

platform. People use it to say what they'll do if a certain amount of
money if raised for the nonprofit of their choice. For example, you
could use it to say something like 'We will purchase coworking.com if
$6000 is raised for (nonprofit org)." The system allows anyone with a
paypal address to receive funds but so far we've only let nonprofits
register.
I LOVE coworking and am starting a cafe/coworking space with some
friends in Brooklyn this spring so we'd be honored if our tools could
power this community's fundraising efforts. Everything is free: no
startup charges, no transaction fees. We're getting sponsors to pay
for everything. :)
We have two options to adapt BEEx to the needs of this community:
1. We can get a nonprofit to fiscally sponsor our projects. This
would make all donations to these projects tax-deductible because the
money would flow through a nonprofit whose mission is aligned with the
coworking movement. I know a number of organizations who would be
interested in fiscally sponsoring these projects. With just a little
coordination we could be collecting tax-deductible donations by the
end of the week.
2. We could also create a custom solution for coworking that alerts
users that their donations aren't tax deductible but I'd much prefer
to do option 1.
Let's discuss more off list.
Folks: If you guys have favorite nonprofits please email me their
names and my genuinely charming partner will reach out to them after
our next site update (javascript registration and improved
formatting!) this week.
Exciting stuff.

I noted this: All material is suggested to be shared under Creative
Commons Share-Alike Attribution license, unless specifically cited by
the author.
The Share Alike license is a very regressive license and is very
disruptive for Public Domain content. It insists that any work that it
gets included in must also be Share Alike. For example, I have made
great efforts to organize my Minciu Sodas laboratory's venues in the
Public Domain. If somebody sends a letter using the Share Alike
license, or includes an excerpt using the Share Alike license -
including anything from coworking.com - then by the terms of the
license, we would have to delete it, or our entire archive would leave
the Public Domain.
Please think about what the license says. And then choose to use
another license!
Co-working is about sharing. Share alike is not. It's an unfortunate fad.

some action? Many open source projects have similar support to help
them pay for web servers and the like. I'm sure this idea has even
been mentioned earlier in the week. I guess that some people might see
the new thing as the lightning rod - which could be good or bad.
Then, once there are some processes (e.g. how do I get a password)
they can be documented and things can be very distributed and self-
starting, except for those few times when we need to renew a domain
name or whatever. For a year or two, maybe we just ask someone to take
point (Alex is that person today), but make sure that a few people are
able to pull the trigger. If there are gatekeepers, they should be
able to anoint other gatekeepers.
We were borrowing a domain name from someone locally (for a user
group) here and he let it lapse, so for a week we were trying to call
that guy and begging him to renew. I'd hate to see that happen on a
global level.
Peace,

I recommend "Public Domain except as noted".
This means that content added will be understood as in the Public Domain
unless it explicitly states otherwise. So if somebody doesn't care
about copyright, which is 99% of the time, then it will end up in the
Public Domain. If they do care, then they need to mark their content as
such. And when they do care to copyright their work, and they do mark
it explicitly, then people can understand that they really mean it, and
respect that accordingly.
