Great tip on a unique local business -- love that!

Thanks for all the great comments. To be fair, I must disclose that I am a co-founder at The Urban Hive in Midtown, and I can absolutely speak to what a day of work is like there. Yesterday, we started with what we call Cereal Creative, which was a 30-minute round table discussion/brainstorm over (yes) cereal. At lunch, we all watched the new TED Talk by Seth Godin. We ended the day by cracking open a few beers for Buzz Night. But in my opinion, the space is not THE thing. Coworking is much more than what's happening in one specific space, in a single location. It's also more than the jobs or tasks that people get paid to do. It's intangible and as such not always the easiest thing to describe, but there are stories that illustrate the abstract. Now, that's what I want to write about: how collaboration -- people coworking -- can bring change to a community, to Sacramento. Places like The Urban Hive or Capsity are simply conduits, a central location for collaborators to gather, dream, brainstorm, share ideas, connect with like-minded people with whom they can collaborate, and they continue the cycle.

Couldn't agree more -- this is especially important for freelancers who make a living writing. Participating in something like this would be challenging if time spent writing doesn't equal the chance to make money. By essentially sharing the rights with contributors, you've solved that problem.
