Emergent Research is studying the impact of co-working on Americans, including independent consultants, small business owners, and other workshifters. As part of that research, they’ve identified over 250 co-working spaces in the United States. The requirements for the spaces included membership options, community space, and catering to those using the facility for work-related purposes. I’m [...]

I wouldn’t trade my digital nomad lifestyle for anything. My office is anywhere I am, and as a result, I get more accomplished and to better quality than if I was chugging away 8 hours a day in a stuffy cubicle. I think a lot of us workshifters feel the same way. But, none of [...]
Most people would agree that when you vacation in a foreign country, it’s best to stay with a local (or at least spend some quality time with one). I would say the same is true for workshifting. My recent workshifting trip through Denmark was probably the best vacation/work/travel I have ever had. My Danish hosts [...]

It’s never a good time to take a vacation. There’s always a reason to wait until next month, next quarter, next year… Eventually, you have to just jump in and decide, okay, it’s time to take a break or do something a little bit different. The problem for me is, making a trek to anywhere [...]
It’s time for state lawmakers to wake up to the fact that we live in a mobile world–one where work is a verb, not a place. Sadly, short of federal intervention, most states aren’t likely to change their ways anytime soon. According to the Survey of State Tax Departments, thirty-five states currently have laws that [...]
I’m staring down the barrel of Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years. Depending on your religious preference, you can toss in a few more holidays too. It’s time for me to dust off last year’s goals and see how I’m doing. Here’s a list of a few of my personal goals, followed by some bad habits [...]
If you are a workshifter, chances are you travel. And if you travel, chances are you rent cars. And if you rent cars, chances are you have come close to strangling a rental car clerk or customer service agent at some point. The process just sucks. Enter Zipcar, an unbelievably innovative process for rental cars [...]
In my last post, I started a conversation about the importance of self-management when it comes to workshifting. The first quality to successful self-management is of course, knowing yourself. The second quality to successful workshifting has to do with the work itself. There are many different ways to earn a living. Finding the way that’s right [...]
Over the past four weeks, I’ve crash-landed on a rocky beach off the coast of California, rocked out in the Windy City where music and skyscrapers ruled the air at Lollapalooza, and spent back-to-back weekends in a city of hippies and flowers, or nowadays, bums and hipsters–San Francisco. All in all, it’s been 5,714 hard, [...]
