I always say that Noisebridge is part of a hackerspace movement. That's not always picked up by the interviewer, though. The CNET story <http://news.cnet.com/8301-27080_3-10405255-245.html> didn't really pick up on other hackerspaces, much, or hackerspaces.org. (But, like you said, people will type "hackerspace" into their search engine of choice.)<BR>
<BR>
I'll be giving a talk about starting your own hackerspace at Codebits (in Lisbon) on Thursday, and doing a panel with Bre and Jens in Singapore (at Neoteny Singapore Camp 1) the following week. I'm hoping this will create more buzz for hackerspaces and hackerspaces.org.<BR>
