In partnership with Legit, we are happy to announce the launch of Collaborative Chats, a monthly speakers series for the collaborative consumption movement, open to the sharing community.
In the Shareable spirit of coming together to explore the collaborative consumption space, join us for a conversation on Building Community in the Sharing Economy.
How can community be cultivated online to facilitate peer-to-peer exchange? What social impacts will result from widespread adoption of collaborative consumption? Explore these questions and more with an outstanding panel of entrepreneurs, sociologists, and users including:
Shelby Clark, Founder + Chief Community Officer, RelayRides
Casey Fenton, Founder + Chief Inspiration Officer, CouchSurfing
Paolo Parigi + Bogdan State, Department of Sociology, Stanford University
Registration is now open! Spaces are limited.
When: Wednesday, February 22, 6:30 - 9:00 PM
Where: Hub SoMa, 901 Mission Street, Suite 105 (5th & Mission), SF
Format: Reception with light food and drink followed by moderated panel discussion and Q&A.

Hello Jince and Daniel!
While this event will not be streamed live, video will be recorded and made available on the Collaborative Chats site - http://collaborativechats.com/ - post event. I along with others will also be live tweeting, so look out for the #collabchats hashtag. And finally, we will cover the event on Shareable! What aspect of the topic are you interested in learning more about?

Milicent just posted a thoughtful recap of the event at http://www.shareable.net/blog/collabortative-chats-recap-building-commun.... We're also planning to post the video there (and tweet it at @ShareableDesign) once it's available.
@Daniel and @Jince: I'm curious to know whether you (or anyone else reading this) followed the live tweeting at #collabchats and whether it was any useful.
I would certainly appreciate any other ideas, suggestions, or constructive criticism!
Will the Q&A be broadcast for us east coast folks?
