This would be so beautiful. Frantisek's comment is great, coupling established with the emerging would (I think) help both spaces. (Established can help point people in the right direction, emerging can help keep new ideas flowing)<div>
<br></div><div>I don't know how beneficial it would be, and bandwidth can certainly be an issue, but I like the idea of having a real time video feed from one point to another. Even if not 24/7, perhaps during established times.'</div>

Hello beautiful people!<br><br>Do you feel that interhackerspace dialog could be better? Tighter,<br>more networked? I do too! What if there was a sister hackerspace<br>exchange. The benefits of such a program would be:<br>
1) People can develop stronger relationships with one other<br>hackerspace, compared to ALLL THE HACKERSPACES<br>2) Sister Membership could lead to more hackerspace visitation<br>3) The difficulties of generalizing and sharing strategy for structure<br>
and process can be eased<br>4) Hackerspaces are personal spaces, data is great, but we connect in<br>our spaces better than online. This will help us love one another.<br>5) Projects can be collaborated on<br><br>Here I humbly propose the first sister spaces:<br>
