New plans

After looking into usage patterns of Station C members, asking questions and speaking with multiple potential members, we are adjusting our membership plan.

The Resident plan stays the same at the same price of $350/month. (24/7 access, reserved table, file cabinet, etc.)

Very few Lite members were using the nights and weekends so we are removing them and lowering the price. This plan will now be $175 a month for 3 days a week. The plan does not include a key anymore since nights and weekends aren't included.

We are also adding a $25/month plan which includes one day of access. Additional days for those members are at $15 each. Days for non members are now at $25 each, replacing the former $3/hour system.

With this system it will be possible, for example, to come one day a week for $70 a month.

The first visit is free so people can still drop by and try out the place before signing up.

In short:

  • $25 a month, includes a day. Additional days at $15.
  • $175 a month for three days a week.
  • $350 a month to be a Resident.

Everything will be clearly shown in our new site which will be available within a week or two but the new plans are available now.

The Girlfriend Panic Button - an iPhone app built at Station-C

Sound too good to be true? The only way to see is to try the app today at http://www.gfpanicbutton.com.

The Girlfriend Panic ButtonThe app was built to promote a new Montreal startup, Make your Girlfriend Happy.com.

Benoit Massé tackled design; while the McDavitt-Fleet brothers, Nathan and Neale came up with the concept and implemented; and Jonathan Brun, founder of Make your Girlfriend Happy.com, oversaw the project.

New memberships for back to school time

After spending the summer with a few people visiting from out of town who kept our space pretty busy, we now have room for new members.

We are using this occasion to add some new membership types which I've been thinking about for a while. First, we are adding a yearly membership at a low price, $50, which gives access to a reduced hourly desk rate and to our member activities and network.

We are also adding two new types of more flexible memberships:

  • "Flex" which includes 12 hours of desk time a week for $100 / month
  • "Flex Lite" which includes 12 hours of desk time a month for $30 / month

Those two types will also feature the reduced hourly rate, access to member activities and network. They don't include a key however so hours need to be used during business hours, Monday through Thursday from 10am to 5pm.

We believe these reduced rates will allow more people to join us and will make our existing group even more interesting and diversified.

Please consult the rates page for more details.

Depending on popularity, all those new memberships should soon be available as self service purchases on the site. We will also add member profiles to give better visibility to everyone and more advanced network features to let members collaborate and exchange leads and tips more easily.

Hands Off! - Félicitation aux gars de Metakine

Antoine et Étienne qui travaillent ici à la Station C viennent tout juste d'ouvrir leur bouteille de champagne pour célébrer la mise en ligne de leur tout nouveau logiciel Hands Off!

Voici une petite description :

Hands Off! est un logiciel qui permet de surveiller et contrôler
l'accès de logiciels à votre réseau et à vos disques. Pouvoir surveiller
l'activité normalement imperceptible vous permet de prendre des
décisions éclairées concernant le transfert de vos informations
confidentielles. Une fois au courant du comportement de vos
applications, vous pourrez identifier celles qui sont dignes de
confiance et celles qui ne le sont pas et accorder ou de refuser des
actions spécifiques.

Il est présentement en vente à 20% de rabais sur leur site: http://www.metakine.com/products/handsoff/

Année 3, nouveau site, nouveaux membres

On en a pas parlé beaucoup ici mais le 4 février nous avons complété notre deuxième année d'opération, yeah nous! ;)

Je ne ferai pas de long résumé de ce qui a été accompli, l'année deux a été assez semblable à l'année un, un bon nombre d'événements, de nouveaux membres, des membres qui partent, etc. Deux des événements marquants on déjà été discutés plus tôt.

En ce début de troisième année, premièrement nous lançons ce nouveau site. Basé sur Drupal, il est en cours de conception depuis très longtemps, malgré son contenu encore assez simple, il a souvent pris son mal en patience, passant derrière de nombreux clients et projets. Merci à Megan Poss, notre stagiaire de l'été passé qui a écrit la plupart du texte en anglais, à Nicolas Ritoux pour la traduction et à Christian Guay pour les photos. Beaucoup de contenu et ajouts de planifiés, resteras à trouver le temps pour faire tout ça. Première priorité; les profils des membres.
