A couple months ago all the cool kids were atwitter with excitement over Google Wave and how, one day, maybe, when everyone else has it too, it’s going to make group collaboration awesome. I have had about one active wave ever, and I don't understand how it works at all, but that's not going to stop us from giving everyone in Brainery classes invites (though I'm sure you all have them already, cool kids that you are) and going wild.
Hopefully, Wave will be an extension of each class—a place to post pictures of your jerky experiment gone horribly wrong, link to some crazy website that sells fiber optic cable, suggest ideas for next week, whatever. If that doesn’t work, we can always use it to reenact scenes from Pulp Fiction.
Like what we're doing?
We're trying to move into our own space so we can do awesome things all of the time, but we need your help to do it!
We want to have more classes, more workshops, and a space where everyone can come together to work on things that interest them. And so much more!
Check out our Kickstarter page for more info.

About us
Brooklyn Brainery hosts cheap collaborative classes on anything and everything. Think book clubs on steroids.
Brainery classes don't have real teachers! Class leaders guide the learning process - you could say they know where you're heading (West!), but not that you need to take I-80 for a few thousand miles to get to Sutter's Mill.
That's where you come in! By sharing what you already know or what you've learned from the week's homework, class becomes way more interesting and way more collaborative.
