SharedDesks & CoworkingFinder

[Enrico Icardi]

This post is about a new website...or, better: "a small part of a big project".

To see what is the project about visit: http://coworkingfinder.com/beta/about/

...or keep reading to understand more about it.

We are right now looking for US coworking spaces (after, mainly, being focused on European ones for months):

If you own/manage (or simply "know") a coworking space that is not listed

please send us an e-mail through this form: http://coworkingfinder.com/beta/add-your-space/

....we are going insert your data "manually" to ensure spaces quality

(basically: we'd love to avoid internet cafès, starbucks or big companies renting offices..)

Anyway....

for those who did not read the newsletter (you can subscribe on http://www.shareddesks.net ...last page...)

here it is:

COWORKING FINDER

a SharedDesks project

SharedDesks & CoworkingFinder

Ladies and Gentlemen,

the SharedDesks team has the great pleasure to present you coworkingFinder.com!

A project focused on data quality showing all the information we manually checked and collected in the last 3 months ( mostly focused on European coworking market).

New Coworking Spaces

For those who knows about spaces not yet listed or data we forgot, we have a simple mail form to let us know about them.

The SharedDesks Team

We are freelancers often travelling for fun, business, family reunions and constantly looking for charming spaces with internet connection, nice hosts, new business opportunities and good coffee (to keep the right nerd-office-mood) wherever we go.

We believe that coworking is a great concept
simply because it is all about what we personally need...yep, is that simple... and that is basically why we build online tools trying to help the coworking community and its growth.

Really enjoying the design and philosophy of your project.  Open source + coworking = big win!

Myself and a bunch of people in this google group are involved in Coworking/Registry, a free/libre/open source inspired project to create and maintain an accessible, neutral, semantically structured database of spaces that makes it as easy as possible for space owners and operators to share their information with developers creating useful technologies for the coworking community.  Basically, we're organizing the coworking community to become a data provider for people who want to make tools for the coworking community.  We're mostly based out of the US and eager to collaborate with folks who share our values so let's connect!  Conversation is beginning to take place at the Open Coworking google group and resources are being accumulated at the opencoworking.org wiki.  Also, feel free to email me questions/comments/haikus/etc.

Hey!

I am aware of the project Coworking Registry. Really cool idea.

I am waiting for an "export data" link to get more coworking spaces into our brand new platform

as well as an API that can allow us to share data we have

....since we're moslty focused on Europe we have a lot of data we'd love to share with you.

Keep working on it, great project.

...and let's keep in touch, ok?

take care,

enrico.

Our next steps are integrating datasets, export functions and building out the api.  I'll keep you updated about progress and looking forward to collaborating.
