Hi everyone,
I am happy to announce that a collaborative project between four coworkers at pariSoma to build a coworking app is almost finished! The app will be called "Coworking". This project truly shows the value and importance of coworking spaces.
The data we are using is here. Please feel free to edit your data or submit your space if you don't find it (please don't change the format!). We've collected data for 394 coworking spaces. A lot of the research began through the coworking wiki and then extended through web search. The goal is to keep this data open so everyone can update their info at any time or add a new space.
The app is designed to:
- Be a mobile database of all coworking spaces worldwide
- Allow people to find coworking spaces in their city or in cities they visit
- Help coworking spaces find new members
The app will be submitted very shortly, within the next two weeks.
We hope that eventually it can become a way to identify and communicate with other people who believe in the coworking movement and are a part of it! We view this as a great way to help make the coworking movement become closer, as there has been much discussion over this recently on the group (coworking blog, coworking conference, etc.).
Feedback is more than welcome and in fact encouraged. We want to continue to improve this app and think of other potentials for it. Please let us know what you think! The best way is by contacting us at coworkingapp [at] gmail.com.
Cheers,
The Coworking App Team

Neat! Thanks for providing the opportunity to edit/adjust our information, Julien.
An additional feature that would be nice: can you find a way to note spaces that participate in the Coworking Visa program? That might make the app even more desirable for current coworkers who are traveling around.
Thanks!
Susan

Julian- Thanks for creating this useful tool. I’ve added our space to the list! One idea… could you add a spot to put in status for Coworking Visa?

Hi everyone,
Thanks for all the feedback and adding your spaces to the list! We
are really excited about this project.
I've just added a column for the coworking visa, please put in a
"y" (for accepting the visa) or an "n" (for not accepting).
Jason, would very much like to talk to you about CoworkingDB. Please
feel free to use our data!
Cheers,
Julian

Great, just updated the data for our Coworkin' FAO. Also had to
remove a space (RentYourDesk Algarve) because it was a project, not
a real space, and merged with us in the meantime.
I feel a bit sad because I'm the only one at our cowork without an IPhone, should we expect to see an Android app anytime soon? :)
eheh
Good work guys,

This is a great idea! I have a question: is the data "baked in" to the app, so changes to data will require app updates, or does it download the data from the 'net?
BTW, You've all seen the WorkSnug augmented reality coworking iPhone app, right?

Venkat, please build the Android app! I can send you the logo for the
app so we can have some consistency. Just ping me at julian [at]

Kim, for the first version the data is going to be "baked-in" but in
the future we'll look to have all the data stored on a server so it
can be readily updated.

I guess:
It will work best when connected to the web as a web-service. All data will be updated on the web, and this App will refresh and download (much like your Gmail mobile desktop App).

Hi everyone,
We are excited to tell you the iPhone App is currently "In Review" by
Apple. It should be published any day now.
Venkat has also received the assets for building the Android app, so
hopefully that comes out soon as well.
We will update you when it Apple says "It's Available"!
Happy holidays everyone!

This is great news! I just wish we knew of each other more recently
since we just published a cleaned up, fresh start version of a
Coworking map with about 400 or so data points. Any chance there
could be synergies between your app and the map? At the very least, a
de-dupe/merge/purge session could be fun and useful for the
community...Thoughts?

Right now, the data does not update dynamically. We'll be adding this
feature in a coming version. Sometime next month, we will submit an
update to Apple that will include all edited data and new spaces
added.
Please let us know if you have any questions.

Ok this is either perfect timing or perfectly bad timing. But while i
was stranded at the airport overnight this past weekend i actually
went through with what I said i would in that post from months ago
when we first started talking about the coworkingdb. Its here on my
home dev svn but i was planning on putting it on my public github
account in the next few days (still a few tweaks left). There's just a
few catches.
I didn't write it in ruby. I know the language but to be honest, what
was stressed over and over was the ability for people to be able to
take this db base and use it in their own manifestations. Right now
i'm willing to bet only another programmer can tell me how you'd
actually go about hosting a website which is built in ruby/ror. Plus
not every hosting service offers it in their shared hosting (which is
what most of these coworking sites use). So i just stuck with basic
php5 for a small front-end which really only does three things:
1)it's a secure login page where owners can register an account + are
immediately taken to a short form letting them enter in all their
coworking facility data. There's an admin side to it that can master
delete/edit if necessary, also just keep track of them all. If they
ever want to change anything about how their coworking facility is
displayed they only need to re-login using their account data that
they used to register with.
2) It gives us a centralized database (once again i went with
something every host would have - mysql) where you won't have spammers
being able to add crap listings nor will there be so many duplicates,
which is the case with all the current online lists.
3) Every time that a new or old coworking listing is edited, upon
clicking the update button a simple script runs the address through a
geolocation service to find the lat/long, then sends it in the
appropriate format either updating, deleting or adding to the master
list that is pubicly viewable at google spreadsheets. It does this
using their API and is all automated, and instant. Because it's google
spreadsheets, if the spreadsheet changes it automatically updates any
map that someone has embedded using their easy export/embed/widget
functionality. There is only one master account for that spreadsheet
so people can't cheat the system. The spreadsheet is public, so in
every way shape or form imaginable you can use whatever part of that
data, or even embedded map (or the georss feed that google spits out)
and use it for your own needs like most sites already are doing.
4) The code for the db also has incorporated into it a simple API
structure so that if you didn't want to use google's services, google
goes down for any reason or stop offering what everyone is relying on,
or you just want specific data... i..e just the locations within 10
miles of miami, FL., you can send a post or get call out to the site
and it will return the results in the format of your choice (xml, json
or rss).
Now, you're probably asking, what about the ones already existing in
the database that we've been using for the past year or two? Well,
that's where i'm still a little hung up at. I have a few ideas but
obviously majority would rule on this one. My idea was that the list
would remain however you wanted to change a current listing all you'd
need to do is when registering, use a box provided to 'claim' one
already on there. Then once that checks out their account would be
assigned that listing and they could do whatever they want with it.
What do you guys think (and btw, where's this 400 list you speaking
of? I've got 6 different lists i've taken from various sources
including the one mentioned that was used for the iphone app + is on
the wiki and have tried my best to prune all the crap that is
currently on them. but none are 400. I've got a few under 100
listings, the main one which is a lil over 376, and then this one that
I came acros which originally was 580+. A few runs of various python
scripts comparing them to google maps later and that list is right now
about the same that's on the wiki. That's because some awesome soul
must have already started the pruning process since we first started
talking about this db project.
Now this also complies with that strange db schema image that is in
the coworkingdb file section here on google as far as where certain
parts of the data go to, and eventually I can convert it over to ruby.
I just went with what i'm best at as far as being able to know that
it'd both secure, fast as possible and universally adaptable by anyone
with even the cheapest 4 dollar a month hosting account. I'm just
going to go ahead and say this that I am volunteering the actual
bandwidth and hosting for this part of the DB and while I'd love to
say I can promise to host it for eternity, don't know what lies down
the road expect that I CAN promise that it will have free hosting via
me/my company for at least the next 5 years or until someone in a
neutral position decides to sponsor it. It really is nothing as far as
loading/bw even if it was heavily used. If you'd like to host it
yourself though as i said it will very shortly be placed in an openly
available, free github account so you can fork it and do whatever you
wish with it on your own servers. I'm just offering this because I
can, I have no financial gain by doing this + therefore there's zero
reason to alter the way it displays the data to perhaps favor a
location over another and also because i'm just a nerd who loves my
own work, have been my own sysadmin for over 10 years and at least
know that this version will not have any problems with hosting/
scripting/etc.. unless it's at the datacenter level. I also have
learned from life experiences that you should never trust any free
service (google spreadsheets) with something that you're trying to or
currently are generating revenue from. They can take it down, it can
go down on its own (like it did last night for about 20 min) or they
could even start charging for it. It'll auto export though just so no
one who currently uses it would have to change anything at all).
So, I realize i didn't participate in your planning session for the
coworkingdb, but then again, you stress at the bottom that you needed
a coder to actually make it for the project to even materialize.....so
I took that as, i'll just do what i know works the best way i know how
in addition to being able to work for anyone else who wants to use it
whether they're tech savvy and are using the api or just want that
embedded map that google auto-generates from the spreadsheet. When you
think about it.. regardless of what laungage it's written in, you
still have your coworking DB as all you'd have to do is go to the
spreadsheet, select the file menu and export it in whatever format
your heart desires. You could even use ruby if that's really something
that you feel is necessary and have IT connect to google's api and
grab the entire db (or even the api). That being said though I'm
definitely up for any and all thoughts or critics? Like i said, I'll
actually move the development version to a live server and place the
entire source code online probably sometime before friday. I'm still
toying around with a few things regarding the api and load testing it
but other than that it might actually be up tomorrow. Either way i'll
obviously be sharing the links to everything on here with all of you
because just like this coworking group + wiki are, this is ultimately
a group effort.

All right, I feel like I can speak in tongues now after reading that.
For future reference, I can almost certainly put it up as a mirror
here in Europe if that's necessary/desirable.
Also for future reference, I think we might want to have a look at
translations, though the most common option around here seems to be
becoming the prominent plaement of a Google Translate button in the
header.
For the present time, may I just say, WOW Brent, you are awesome! If
you were stranded for the weekend could you set something up that
allowed people to pay as they go at multiple cowork locations? Maybe
with a swipe card I am thinking. Because you know, with the weather
we have been having a stranding could be arranged......>evil laugh<
Kidding. Thanks for the work, I really am impressed.
