Last night we saw a group of about 40 people get together at the Blogads offices. We met some milestones within our first five hours together as a group including:
- Narrowing more than 20 ideas down to five, then three, then one (code name: Kwopr)
- Fleshing out the concept so that everyone could understand it–the plan is to offer a website/service that allows people looking for temp office space to find cooperative spaces where they can work in their local area.
- An example of a place that already does this cooperative workspace is in Denver. It’s called The Hive and it has shared desks, chairs, white boards, meeting rooms, etc. I went once with Alex King and would never have known about it unless someone had told me he had some space there. This site would make that information more readily available
This is the latest from our 9:30 am meeting:
-User Ex guy TJ gave us a great presentation with basic workflows beginning to be laid out (pictured above)
-Andrew is walking around w/a “Hit List” board getting people to give info about where they’ll be at target points throughout the weekend
-Dev is leaning towards using Ruby on Rails this weekend
That’s the latest! I saw some twitter talk about Ustream getting up. Not sure if that will come to pass, but if it does, we’ll update you here!
