• desksurfer – rent desks by the hour in london – DeskSurfer is for freelancers or busy people in need of a temporary office for an hour or two. Imagine having a meeting in London’s Soho area, it ends at 2pm, you want to stick around for a couple of hours as you have a meeting in Kings Cross but don’t have anywhere quiet to work. Then log onto DeskSurfer, find offices near you and rent a desk for an hour or two. Turn up. Work. Leave. It’s as simple as that. You might even make new friends/colleagues.
• crowdfunding / FrontPage – Crowdfunding can replace the need for specialized grant applications or other more formal and traditional fundraising techniques with that of a more casual, yet powerful, approach based on crowd participation. Examples of the basis of Crowdfunding can be seen in Cooperatives (co-ops) around the world. However, the Internet can provide new streamlined approaches to quickly imitating the co-op model for low-level and/or sudden needs (ie. disaster relief, travel expenses, legal fees and so on.). It is this reason that a term be used to encompass the act of informally generating and distributing funds, usually online, by groups of people for specific social, personal, entertainment or other purposes.
