New Dublin coworking space planned
Eamon Leonard who was formally involved in TL01. Is planning to set up a new coworking space in Dublin. He already has Ken Stanley the self appointed “web standards legand” on board.
To quote Eamon:
I’ve been participating in one for the last year, but it’s recently been wound down. I’ve since started up my own company, EchoLibre, and we’re hoping to move into new office space in early October.
Given the benefit coworking had for me as a freelancer, and the belief I have that it can foster creativity and innovation, I’m going to make some of the office space available to freelancers – designers, developers, whatever (except SEOs – sorry, being able to set up a google ad campaign does not make you an expert).
The office is on South William Street and consists of two rooms – one will be for EchoLibre, the other for coworking. I already have one coworker on board, and have space for two more.
Coworking isn’t for everyone, but if you think it’s something you’d be
interested in, and you want an office in a nice part of town for a _very_ affordable price, then drop me a line.
Subsequently Patrick O’Connor was looking at the http://the-hub.net concept (while following coworking.ie). Looks like he might get onboard too.
If your interested in getting involved leave a comment or pop Eamon an email.
Thanks to Laura for pointing out the thread on PHPug. PS: Coworking.ie is still alive!
Just a small clarification, I’m not directly involved with any efforts to set up a Hub in Dublin (yet). But there is a team of pretty focussed people hoping to do so. I’ll let them know what you’re all about, I’m sure they’ll be very interested

Very nice. Perfect for some1 looking to get office space and trying to out of the house once in a while. How will the shared office space work? Per person?
I don’t remember appointing myself as a ‘web standards legend’… I think that was actually Eamon. I’m really more of a creepy lurker perv to be honest.
Just a quick update on this.
We’ve now moved in. All coworking spaces are taken. I have kept one desk aside for hotdesking. So if you’re in the area of South William St., Dublin 2 drop me a DM on twitter: twitter.com/EamonLeonard

Hi, I’m really interested in finding out more about your coworking. I’m a freelance graphic designer and am looking into alternatives to working mostly at home alone.
Please keep me in mind if a space becomes available in there and let me know the details of how it’s working.
Thanks
