[PIGMI] Let's Make Games: Shared co-working office survey

[Anthony Sweet]

Hey PIGMIs,

Let's Make Games are currently looking into the viability of a shared  
co-working office area for game and digital media developers. One of  
the first steps we have to make is determine if there is enough demand  
for a shared working space to exist.

Below is a quick list of questions to poll for interest from the  
community on the shared co-working space and the potential services  
provided. If this is of interest to you, please answer the questions  
in a reply back to myself (anthony at letsmakegames.org), Minh (minh at letsmakegames.org 
) and/or Nick (nick at letsmakegames.org).

We'll be collecting all of your input over the weekend, and will  
probably contact some developers on Monday if it is likely they might  
have missed this due to X|Media|Lab taking up all their time this  
weekend. =)

Cheers guys, I look forward to getting your feedback.

-Are you interested in a shared workspace in the CBD for game and  
interactive media developers?

-The space will most likely be rented out on a per desk per month  
basis.  How many desks would you require, and what length of time  
would you expect to rent the desk(s) for? (Minimum term would be one  
month. Shared part-time leases would be negotiable.)

-Would you be interested in the services of a;
	-receptionist,
	-a meeting room,
	-wireless internet,
	-printing,
	-filing or storage space?
Please indicate which, and feel free to add other services you might  
require.

-Would you have a preferred starting date (or the sooner the better)?

-What range of rent rates would you be willing to pay?
(As examples of current rates, The Hub Melbourne offer 24/7 access for  
$660 inc GST per month down to 10 hours access per month for $66 inc.  
GST.)

-Would you require 24hr access?

-LMG has been approached by a number of businesses looking to contract  
work for game development and digital media projects. Does your  
business undertake contract work, and are you/will you be actively  
looking for further contract work?

-Have you previously registered on SpaceMarket?

-Are there other locations (non-CBD) where this venture would interest  
you?
