Cool idea, hope it gets traction.

Somewhat related: I think VR is going to be huge for coworking. If you've used BigScreen (http://store.steampowered.com/app/457550/) you'll know what I'm talking about. While you can't see peoples faces yet, and resolution in VR is still low, it really does feel like you're working right next to somebody, and I could see it be a thing.

Totally agreed. I think I have a few years at least before I need to worry about VR market saturation crowding me out though :P

It's an interesting question of whether it might make sense for me to get into that space with Complice (which is mostly a productivity app—the rooms are just one feature). I can see reasons why that might make sense but I think it's ultimately pretty far from my central value proposition and it would make more sense to partner with BigScreen or something instead.

I enjoy using Complice with the silent cams sometimes right now so thinking of how virtual coworking could be with VR is really cool. Can't wait!
