"Back in 2007, there were a grand total of 14 coworking spaces worldwide"

Really? I mean I don't have any hard evidence to the contrary, but that seems really hard to believe.

Sure, it wasn't a thing yet. You could probably also say there were only 14 social media influencers back then too.

In all seriousness it has been common for a long time for attorneys who are solo-practitioners to share an office front and receptionist, but nobody ever called it a co-working space.
