Pictures of Coworking

Unless you live in Michigan, Ohio, Florida, New Mexico or any of the other "battleground" states in this presidential election, you've no doubt noticed that the presidential campaigns produce a ton of commercials but that they only by air time for a select few. It's a new phenomenon that's come about thanks to the viral nature of the Internet. Release the "news" that you've got a new commercial and news outlets will play it for free.Well, we're no dummies here at Office Nomads and know a good idea when we see one. So we thought we'd share with you a few commercials for coworking spaces and help them start to make their rounds on the Internet. Dare we say it, spreading the word about coworking may be a bit more relevant day to day than the back and forths coming from McCain and Obama?Affinity Labs in Washington, D.C. produced this very short and very nice piece about their services and space. It's so cool to watch because it showcases the results of the kind of support coworking spaces and incubators can offer.Then there's BlankSpaces down in Los Angeles. They've produced a really slick piece that I think captures the intent of the coworking community extremely nicely.Collaboration 2.0 from BLANKSPACES on Vimeo.They've also got a second commercial and a few other videos to check out as well.In an age when media can come from anyone, anywhere in any form, it's so nice to have more and more ways to explain and share the concept of coworking with the world. If you've got some other examples of coworking videos or podcasts or articles or anything you think we should share, please let us know.(Oh, and if you're wondering about an Office Nomads video...some of us residents of the space are working on something that's going to be, a tad different than the above, but fun to watch nonetheless. Stay tuned...)
