in Three Rules of Why Coworking Sucks on Learn To Duck
Jacob, Todd, Ted, and Brent have said pretty much everything I would have.
The fact of the matter is, IndyHall existed before we had a single desk to share. And if the desks went away, our community of creative collaborators would still exist.
I hope that you get to hang out in a "real deal" coworking community (note, I said community, not office) and then write a new essay of 3 rules of why coworking doesn't suck.
And then, if it doesn't work for you, let us know why. I know it doesn't work for everyone. But it certainly doesn't suck for the 40+ people in philadelphia who use our facility every day, and the dozens of people who've been impacted by a stronger creative community in Philadelphia.
I understand you're on the east coast at the moment. Any interest in swinging by IndyHall to meet the crew? I'd love to go out for a beer and talk shop.

As I sit here with Aaron Brazell in his Indy Hall tshirt, I am getting it from all directions! I am on the East Coast for a short visit, which will preclude me from getting to Philly, but I promise to add Philly to my itinerary in the next couple of months, and will swing by Indy Hall. As long as you promise a visit to Drinkers Tavern.
And, of course, I would be willing to eat crow, if there is crow to eat. Frankly, I expect that my mind will not be changed as coworking sucks, whether you call it a community or not.
