Well guys, we are drawing near.
Tony, Todd and I have been hard at work on our ‘coworking book’ for many months now, and we are close indeed. The book has evolved into being about more than coworking. What we have encountered in our journey into coworking is a glimpse into the Future Of Work.
Coworking is, indeed, a key ingredient in that emerging ecology of work. As are other more corporate-oriented themes, such as workspace redesigns for more open-shared-collaborative work spaces back at HQ, corporate hoteling for the growing armies of corporate teleworkers who occasionally need places to meet up, satellite spaces in suburbia, etc.
Programs at Sun, Boeing, Cisco and IBM point the way to a future world of work untethered. Those out there living the nomadic life are already encountering/living some of the constraints. We find refuge at Jelly, at our local coworking space, or at the local coffee shops that make us feel at home.
Gathering in numbers, we are just beginning to define the future of work. In our book, we tell stories of people we’ve met on the road and in the network, people who are living today the way millions of us will live tomorrow.
Thanks for your participation, and thanks for your patience.
In touch soon!
Drew (aka Butcher)
I just got chills!
Am I a future man? If so, I may need a cool new moniker. Something like, “Radium Boy” or “Prometheus: Lord of Tomorrow” or maybe just “Johnny Toronto”.
Can’t wait for the book, guys!!!!
