How about open collaborative coding/learning/skillsharing/failure/embarrassment/fear/success/love.

Got some interesting side projects or work that you can share while you are doing it? Want to teach something?

I think it is important that coding and learning to use software comes out from behind the curtain.

Let’s give people a visual of what it is like to learn to write code or to work with digital tools and new or unfamiliar software. We can each choose a time to be active in the Coffee Shop sharing our screen while working on a project or learning to use a software, thus giving others a window into the world of a technologist, programmer, artist and free software enthusiast etc.. Practice your craft here – acting, singing, public speaking, dancing, ranting and pontificating, lounging, cavorting, nature walking, dining. Share your acting skills, cooking prowess, reading aloud, teach me French, play chess, on and on… This experiment could also FAIL… but we tried!

My best advice is to FAIL FAST AND OFTEN!!! The more you fail, the more you will have a chance to succeed.

If you want to discuss a process for planning some live co-working events in the future, that would be great! The idea is to have ongoing activities in the Coffee Shop and to be skill sharing as well. It will surely start off small until we get the word around to people. Vet your idea at Show and Tell with Agaric and Friends.
