Collect Ideas for Room Usability Improvements

by Max Klein

One of the things that the expectations email got me thinking about is how to make the interior (not common) space more functional. I want to come up with a plan, and want your input. I've started a wikipage that I hope you'll add to: https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Room_Usability_Notepad Here are my preliminary thoughts. ==A master map of where everything goes== *If we had a map where everything went then we would know what is in- or out-of place. *Less "where is x?" type questions. *The uninitiated could clean since they would know where to put something. *Dedicate a wall to this map. **Is it paper? **Is it a floor plan view? ***Does it have numbered dots on the floor plan, and an index of the numbered dots for lookup? ==De-[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cruft crufting]== *One proposal for precepts: (add your own) **Projects older than x months are trash. **Components and unsorted material are trash. (Like misplaced books in a library are lost). **Err on the side of trash - that aggravation is better than cruft. **It is OK for trash to go in the landfill. ==It's all about the desk== *This is the main point of entry for a lot of our working. *Discourage leaving things on the desk **If only there were a way to hinge the surface, so that the entire tabletop contents could slide off into a rubbish bin. **Make a laminate that surface that insults/reminds you. **Or a laminte suface that has visible squares so its always easily countable what surface percentage can be seen. ==2:1 cleaning oath== *As a member, you vow to clean in ratios of 2 times the mess you make.

New wiki learning & collaboration feature now active!

by Pete Forsyth

Last night I installed "CollabOERate" on the Sudo Room wiki. This is a feature that permits real-time collaboration on a wiki page! It's sort of like having an Etherpad experience within a wiki page. I haven't yet made it active by default, it's probably worth experimenting a bit first. To try this feature, you will need (ideally) a recent version of Firefox or Chrome, and a friend. On the Sudo wiki, you both need to: - go to Preferences -> Gadgets - check: <gadget-CollabOERate> - click "save" Now, as you browse around the wiki, you will see a button: [CollabOERate] in the lower left of every screen. When you click that, you'll be assigned a custom URL you can send to your friend. Have fun, and please let you know what you think! I am thinking I might offer a wiki training session some time this week to try using this feature. Watch for an announcement -- and if you want to participate, feel free to let me know what times work best for you! Pete [[User:Peteforsyth]] p.s. Thanks to Mozilla for the enabling technology "TogetherJS", WikiEducator for making the gadget that works on MediaWiki sites, and Matt Senate and various Mesh folk for helping me test it out!

Subiir brewing: This Saturday from 10AM @ Adeline LiveLabs

by Morten H. D. Fuglsang

Hey all, Yes! The time has been set for the long awaited Subiir brew. Marc and I will fire up the mash at 10am, and it will be kickass. We will make stout. Again, I hope some of you will join to learn the Subiir brewing setup so that the gear can be used more and that we can all have access to more great, cheap, hacked beer. Make a great thanksgiving, Morten

stand together SudoRoom

by Romy Ilano

I've wandered out into the world, parts of San Francisco. Not to be negative, but it just seems like a cold-hearted, empty hipster high school popularity compared to SudoRoom and Noisebridge. I felt like I was wandering through a world of plastic alternative barbie and ken dolls. It is really OK though because I don't expect everyone to be my friend. Even if we don't always get along, and people do weird stuff like shit in elevators, piss each other off, we should stand together.* we do have a heart. *

request for maker help, update & invite

by J Clark

Sudoers, First, the request. I'm in a pinch, wonder if any Sudoers might help me out. Two of us (Mike of OmNomProject and I) are trying to create a maker space in San Leandro, at the south end, in Bayfair Center (the mall at the Bay Fair BART stop). Yes, a maker space in a retail mall. It's an experiment. Mike and I have mostly committed to be open this Black Friday weekend to help offset the inhumanity of the holidays. Only problem: Mike is sick, has been sleeping for the last two days, and will be contagious for some days after he's feeling better. I advised him to stay home, which leaves the weekend to me. On our schedule we have the easy, proven activities: bunny copters for smaller kids, crypto adventures for the mid-range kids, a 3D printer for the bigger kids, and a few humble things to sell (SparkFun inventor kits, soft circuit kits, and some blank greeting cards). OMG! The request: can anyone come help out for an hour or two this weekend? Bring your own activities if you'd like, or just come help color the bunnies. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated, good karma abounds, and many kids will thank you. The update: East Bay Maker Labs! The invite: if anyone is curious about what's happening in San Leandro, come join us for a Meet the CIO: Cool Tools for Makers event next Friday eve. Yes, conflict with First Friday acknowledged, not much I can do about that. Here are details: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/meet-the-cio-san-leandro-by-design-cool-tools-… 3D printers! 3D scanners! Laser cutters! and more, oh my! (Hey, it's all new to this community. Everyone starts somewhere.) With best holiday wishes and warm appreciation for Sudo Room, judi San Leandro Coworking 400 Estudillo Ave, #204 San Leandro, CA (510) 398-4000 hello(a)sl-co.com http://sl-co.com
