[casual_games] Idea: Starting an Incubator/Accelerator/Huge Not Expensive Workspace for Indie Game Developers

[Sheri Rubin]

Well it won't necessarily be filled with other Indie devs, but if you 
occasionally need to be working in an "office" like environment and to 
have the feel of people near you Lifehacker shared this coworking 
directory: http://wiki.coworking.info/w/page/29303049/Directory

Not sure if this might be a good in-between step.
