Jam on It

Jelly Work Collectives

Your imaginary latte is getting cold. Not to worry. Just keep working, and the day trader with the staring problem two laptops over might go away. Or not.

Next time, plug yourself into a Jelly, the casual co-working collective that just popped up in Atlanta.

Jelly’s coffeehouse meet-ups are ideal for indie workers, freelancers, and post-grads. Sign up online at city-specific wikis, and join groups at Octane and Urban Grind anytime your schedule permits (a.k.a. those lonely hours between Tyra and Dr. Phil).

More formal Jellies are in the works, but for now, they make sure to pick WiFi-enabled spots with plenty of space to pore over funny weblinks and genius ideas.

Pour that in your cup and sip it.

Next Jelly is December 7, 11:30 a.m.-5 p.m., at Urban Grind, 962 Marietta Street (404-724-0605). Sign up online at workatjelly.com.
