'Workfrom' Crowdsources the Best Places to Work in Cities
References: itunes.apple & lifehacker
With many jobs existing solely online, employees don't always need to work in a traditional office; 'Workfrom' is an app and online platform for those people. The service is like Yelp but specifically for publicly accessible working spaces, letting users post reviews of various areas throughout a city.
The Workfrom system is based on a set of criteria that are most relevant to people looking for a publicly accessible workspace. These include things like: whether the space is public or private; the quality of the Wi-Fi there; the amount of outlets (or whether there are outlets at all); and whether the space has food and drinks.
Workfrom began as a website only, but has since expanded to include a mobile app as well, which is fitting considering the transient nature of its target users.
