Developer for Workshop Café here. The recently-released social features (Community Page) are definitely just the MVP. Would love to know what you think. We're going to see how people use it and add stuff we think is helpful. We've already noticed people putting their contact info and links to their personal pages, projects, etc. Hope it catches on!
Oh tight. I hadn't even noticed the feature, because I just use the app to check in and out. Would love to have more first-class 'desktop' web support, since once I'm sitting there already using my laptop I don't want to have to keep whipping out my phone to do things.
But it's totally awesome to have the capability to check out who's there. I hope it goes a long way toward fostering a community there and helping people make useful contacts.
You can currently use the app on your desktop browser using the same url (https://app.workshopcafe.com) and get the same feature set as you get on your phone (Except for things that require a phone like calling or texting in orders). No need to switch from your laptop!
