Coworking CoCollage

What the heck is that? Good question. It is a CoCollage screen and it is the newest addition to the Office Nomads space. A CoCollage is a basically a virtual refrigerator door. A local company puts a large flat-panel screen in community gathering spots such as ours visitors (or residents) a place to post, well virtual detritus of the sort that, if it were real, you'd stick on a refrgerator door with a magnet. According to the company, they want to help people mix their virtual and "real" worlds. They were pretty excited to hang it here since all their other installations are in coffee shops. This is the first one with a stable, recurring user base.To be honest, it's kind of strange right now, but I think that's because it's so new and we're all not really sure what to put up there. During the testing/seeding phase, Jacob put a bunch of pictures up there from his house remodel and Susan added shots of our last Open House. Ol' #2 (Tim) loves to send cranky quotes to the screen and Suzi is putting up some of the more interesting science pictures she has in her store. Tim also likes to mess with people who walk by his desk on the way to the kitchen where the screen is. The other day I passed him only to be ordered back to work by the screen. Creepy.Anyway, we're definitely guinea pigs for this new company so the sky's the limit with what can be put up there and how we use it. All CoCollage wants back is our feedback and you can be a part of it by checking out and adding to the stream from the office or online. So if you're in the neighborhood and looking for some place to display your latest macaroni art or witty thought, stop by and log on! Actually, you don't even have to be here to add our ongoing mash-up. Just create an account and start uploading (though, your stuff shows up faster and more often if you're actually in the space).
