It\u2019s me, Lindsey, Director of Operations! If you\u2019ve ever called or emailed GCUC we\u2019ve chatted and if you have any questions, I&#8217;m here for you! Although I usually prefer hanging out behind the scenes, today I\u2019m breaking that cloak of invisibility to issue you a challenge. Let\u2019s fix co-working.<\/p>\n<p>You know that pesky little hyphen that blights good press and scholarly articles everywhere? Yup, it\u2019s time for it to go the way of the Dodo. Let\u2019s fix this co-working vs. coworking madness once and for all. We\u2019ve talked about it on the <a href=\"https:\/\/groups.google.com\/forum\/#!searchin\/coworking\/hyphen\">Coworking Google Group<\/a>, in blog posts (<a href=\"http:\/\/officenomads.com\/tag\/associated-press-style-guide\/\">here<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/dangerouslyawesome.com\/2008\/11\/does-coworking-have-a-hyphen\/\">here<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.deskmag.com\/en\/coworking-or-co-working-with-hyphen-252\">here<\/a>) on Twitter and Facebook. The funny cartoon above made the rounds before GCUC 2013 and the \u201cPlease Don\u2019t Hyphenate it, We Like to be Together\u201d t-shirts are still a favorite.<\/p>\n<p>I want 2015 to be the year we put this debate to rest. To that end, GCUC is offering two free tickets to anyone who can get the Associated Press Stylebook changed such that coworking, without the dreadful hyphen, is the official and correct spelling of coworking.<\/p>\n<p>This is in the spirit of a friendly challenge. No need for legal mumbo-jumbo. If you can make this happen today, awesome! Two tickets for GCUC USA 2015. If it takes you all year, that\u2019s OK too! We&#8217;ll see you wherever we land in 2016!<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s post updates using <strong>#nohyphenplease<\/strong> out on the interwebs.<\/p>\n<p>Cheers!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey Coworking Peeps!
