How Coworking can get massive inspiration from the success of Linux and Wikipedia
Many people regard Linux today as the most successful operating system in the world. Just a few facts: Google, Facebook, Amazon, Twitter, Ebay etc. run their systems on Linux. 90% of today’s 500 fastest supercomputers run some variant of Linux, including the 10 fastest. That is what I call a success story!!! And the special thing about Linux: It is free and open source! But Linux does not stop there. You will find Linux in new televisions, in car entertainment systems and in telephones. This month saw the premiere of the Ubuntu Smart Phone Operating System at CES in Las Vegas. And Ubuntu (you guessed it) is based on Linux and it stands for: “the belief in a universal bond of sharing that connects all humanity”. And of course this is what Linux, Wikipedia and Coworking are all about!

We did it!!! We broke the 1000 free coworking hours for April today!!!
Veröffentlicht am 16. April 2013 von Felix Schürholz in Kategorie: CoWorking Calendar, CoWorking Events, CoWorking News International | Kommentieren »Only one week after the start of our challenge, we currently list 1081 free coworking hours in the Coworking Calendar for April!!! When we saw the signs at the beginning of the month, we could not imagine, that the growth would be that large. More and more people start to engage in various activities to promote free coworking. There is for example the Free Desk Campaign by Open Studio Club or the setting up of the Coworking Visa Map by The Network Hub. Worldwide everyday people set up new free coworking offers and free coworking initiatives. We think this is great and we hope that the free coworking logo will appear in more and more locations and on more and more platforms.
