To spark a few emotions at the beginning, I like to look at the currently largest social network „Facebook“. By closer examination you find out, that it is already run to a large extent by the users. The obvious one: Content. I guess no discussion on that one.  Another example: Support. According to a german […]

„Free Coworking“: A „Free Apple“ Analogy

Veröffentlicht am 6. Februar 2012 von admin in Kategorie: CoWorking Basics, Konzeptionelles, CoWorking Kultur, CoWorking News International, Meinung | 1 Kommentar »

Veröffentlicht am 30. Januar 2012 von admin in Kategorie: CoWorking Kultur, CoWorking News International, Crowdsourcing, Services und Unterstützung | 2 Kommentare

Things that are practical, are easy to explain. To explain why „Free Coworking“ gathers „Social Capital“ is not quite as easy to explain. Therefore I like to suggest something practical and beneficial for everybody: „Skill Sharing“. You say which skills you currently have and which skills you currently require for your work.  I am setting […]
