Amy, you do not have to do anything to make me feel better about this. All I am saying, is if we want to highlight Indiana - let it be about something/anything other than a mass flash of people with a #Indiana. FormSpring has users in 111 different…

Hey Paul, I am not saying it has to be serious, I am just saying that the trending items are actual conversations. I just think it is better if these things are organic...or around a particular event, and thus would provide a better opportunity to s…

I hate to be a voice of cynicism here, but what is the point? The reason why things trend on twitter is because it is a popular topic and people are discussing it on twitter - not because there is "ballot stuffing" going on. A better exercise in usi…

Hi Tim, We use AdWords and drive a good percentage of sales from it. You have to be disciplined, have a plan, and have a way to track and measure sales/inquires to make it effective. There are some good folks here on SI that you could reach out to…

Doug, great post. And yes, I work for a SaaS/Tech company here in town - FormSpring, (which you didn't mention :) so I have a certain bias. I think as more companies like ours become successful we will see more attention paid to our sector. We have…

Saying Goodbye

If I were still blogging about sports I would write about how the City of Indianapolis just lost one of the best NFL coaches. I would write something along the lines of how anyone who is excited to see Dungy leave because of his last few playoff… Continue

Brushing Virtual Elbows with Tech Gurus

My name is Chris and I am a Twitterholic. For those of you who do not use it, Twitter is a micro-blogging platform that allows you to update what you are doing in 140 character or less. It allows you to have a list of "followers" or friends that see your updates and you to see their's. It is an addictive tool but can also be used in many creative ways. Yes, people let you know that they are having a sandwich, but you can also get some really great news, interesti… Continue

Something for Nothing

A contact on LinkedIn sent out a question to the site about a side project he was working on. He is someone I have only met once and actually we were looking at his company to provide a service for us, he contacted me directly as well with his question because he knew of my PR agency background. He needed some tips on getting some PR (public relations, not p… Continue

A few things to consider before joining Smaller Indiana:
1. Please use your real name (first and last) when you sign up, or we cannot open your account

2. Please do not use logos or commercial images for your profile photo

3. Events should be posted in the events calendar

4. You can post pretty much anything you want on your own personal page (self promotion, etc), and you can change the style of your personal profile page to reflect your corporate identification if you so choose.

5. Please keep all comments civil and polite. It's OK to feel strongly about a subject, and it's OK to be critical of ideas, but please refrain from personal attacks of any kind.

If you witness or experience any issues, please contact admin@smallerindiana.com and we will look into the matter.

6. Smaller Indiana is supported by its members, and by corporate sponsors. If you're interested in learning more about sponsorship, please call Pat Coyle at 317 332 7878.
