Mike Butcher - mbites

Last year fellow blogger and social media expert Lloyd Davis came up with an idea for something called a "social media cafe" where people working in social media (bloggers, marketing people, technologists etc) could get together in the same space and work. Sort of 'vertical co-working'. He's been looking for potential venues - I'm talking physical space here - in London. But this requires cash investment. However, it strikes me that a mashup of co-working and a flash mob might work better - or at least be a way of starting the idea without investment. What you need is a cluster of about two or three cafes within walking distance of each other, all offering free WiFi. Then simply flash-mob (all turn up at the same time) those places on one particular day, with people who are signed-up to the project. At lunchtime, try to gather in one of them to meet your fellow "workers". Then do whatever you need to do that day from your allotted cafe. Crazy?
