Today, I decided to work in the digital lounge on Newbury Street, operated by Tech Superpowers. I found them through a search for ‘Boston coworking,’ and they mention that they’re a casual coworking location. They have a very small office with wood floors and wood desks; ten people could work here, but it would be really crowded.
Unfortunately, I don’t think they’re really a coworking space – it’s more like an internet cafe. All but two of the desks have their own computers on them, which you can use temporarily. It seems that most of their money comes from their Apple repair service, and no one really appears to work here full time. Therefore, unlike WorkBar, this is very quiet and there’s not a lot of idea exchange.
Overall, it’s a fine place to stop in if you need to get online on Newbury street or are visiting for a day and need to skype, but I don’t think there’s a lot that i want to emulate here when I open Beijing Coworking next month.
