coworking

Cospace, which officially opens next Monday, February 22, will be the first coworking space in North Austin. It's a pretty nifty space, easily accessible from 183 and Lamar, with plenty of free parking.

To help them launch in style, GeekAustin will be co-hosting an open house Monday evening from 6-9PM. Come by, check out the space, and meet Kirtus(@kirtusdixon), Andrew, and Pat.

Here's the details:

Many of my friends consider Caroline Valentine, of Valentine And Associates, the first person to call when they have high-level HR/staffing needs. The last few times we've had lunch, I wished I had a recorder with me. Following a recent conversation about insurance, I wrote some of my questions down, and Caroline responded.

Lynn Bender: Last time we met, you had mentioned several strategies which startups can use to reduce their per employee health insurance premiums. Could you elaborate?
