Text of an announcement I tried and failed to send to the a2b3-coworking mailing list:
Introducing ‘a2b3-microworking’ a public calendar over on Google Calendar.

What is microcoworking? http://wordie.org/words/microcoworking
Why not Yahoo calendar? because it’s more stingy with feeds and I bet more of us use Google Calendar anyways. The only grossness is that one of the people who are using it already will have to ’share’ calendar posting access with you.
I’ll conclude with the description I wrote for the google calendar:
“Microcoworking calendar for folks in and around Ann Arbor. If you have work to do, but not a place to work, you are invited to join us whenever and wherever there is something on the calendar. You may also add time to the calendar, just make sure to be there. Send a note to brian@joechip.net to get magic calendar posting privileges (sorry for the hassle).”
If any of you putative microcoworkers have ideas for how I can make this work better for you, let me know.

You hit one of the control towers on the mailing list (first post to the list moderated) - thanks for putting this here too.

Ah, that explains it — I’m super glad you started the list, by the way; the message needs to be “here is your customer list” to whatever enterprising soul wants to slog through the commercial real estate mud.
