When coworking comes to town | New Urban Network
When coworking comes to town | New Urban Network
Interesting article about the emerging face of freelancing. I hadn't thought to tie it in to urbanism and Richard Florida, of all people, but I suppose it makes sense. His infamous creative class often doesn't work well within the confines of a standard office.
The only problem is, how about a co-working site that's a little more affordable? I guess we're stuck with cafés.

I need to figure my bidness out, and whether I'm staying in Seattle or not. HRRRRM.

Reading list for the day (Hazard Mitigation flavor)

With more snow on the way, NYC shakes things up.
And what does the central California valley have in common with the Netherlands, and even more with pre-Katrina New Orleans? A hell of a lot, actually. (Note: this is an excellent article, and well worth the time to read it):
