NY Times on Studiomates, co-working space in Brooklyn

I live in Old City, Philly, where we have Indy Hall. (http://indyhall.com/) A lot of people like it, but I really don't want to work around people who, plus or minus, are just like me. (I believe the word for us is "nerds.")

My favorite co-working space is a coffee shop because it tends to be a lot more diverse than the intentionally created spaces I've seen. That said, I think I would very much enjoy working out of Paragraph, a writing space in Manhattan. (http://www.paragraphny.com/)
