Goodbye, Walls : Upstate workers share energy and ideas while co-working
Hunkered down in coffee shops with glowing screens and steaming cups are not college students checking their social media or moms checking their email. These are the digital nomads – freelancers or entrepreneurs. They've escaped their cramped home offices and uncomfortable chairs to crank out a new business proposal or report to a client. Now, the next step. Instead of dealing with the din that is a public space, purposefully designed workplaces for these sometimes solitary workers have been appearing across the Upstate as part of a global trend: co-working. Rather than sharing a table with a coffeehouse stranger, a co-worker shares space with fellow freelancers or entrepreneurs. They work with each other in the same space and sometimes on the same projects. Co-working spaces offer a place to work and meet clients, typically for a rental fee. Workers can keep flexible hours, share common areas and many times collaborate. And the movement is building. According to Deskmag.com, a site devoted to co-working and its settings, two-thirds of co-working spaces surveyed in 2012 are considering expanding. CoWork Railside
