I think it's really important to look at their creativity. Many companies and people are claiming to be web "designers" when really they just customize already created templates, such as Wordpress. While templates can be the way to go if you're sh...

Amy -- I wouldn't say Mike and Kyle are winning here, exactly. Yes, they've been getting a lot of attention in Indy's tiny little social media world, but the attention has been negative.

I take mild offense to that Robby. But honestly, I don't know what it is... something is in the air. :-)

This is an awesome thing for nfps. It might be easier to just have the link to the pdf instead of just listing where to find it: http://www.trendyminds.com/images/specials/TM-In-Kind-App.pdf

Well let's face it. These contests really only evaluate what blog can get the most friends and family to vote for them. It says nothing about the blogs' quality or reputation in its industry. (And this is coming from an employee of one of the blog...

How did you hear about Smaller Indiana?
Co-worker
What is your greatest strength?
My enthusiasm. For better or worse, I tend to think I can handle everything! Jumping right in is often the best way to learn, and it's the most fun to boot!
What are you working on?
I'm a public relations account executive for TrendyMinds, so I'm busy getting great exposure for our clients. Writing, networking, pitching, reading... I'm a busy bee!

Personally, I've just returned to Indianapolis after a year in New York City, so I'm enjoying getting reacclimated with the Hoosier life. Manhattan may be great, but in my mind no city is better than Indy!

Why join Smaller Indiana? What are you hoping to experience here ?
I love the idea of Hoosiers connecting -- it's such a small town feel in such a great (and growing!) city. I've come to realize that everyone in city is just a few people away from a close friend, and this site is the realization of that.

Tasting Royalty at King David Dogs!

What do you get when you mix 10 socially connected and social media savvy Hoosiers, pounds of cookies and all the hot dogs, tater tots and onion rings you can eat? A fantastically successful TatseCasting!

Today TrendyMinds and the TasteCasting team held the first Indianapolis tasting at King David Dogs, an awesome gourmet hot dog joint downtown. Brent Jospeh, owner of King David Dogs, treated our team to a delicious array of hot dogs, sides and desserts — and it made us die hard fans!

Social Media Reality Check



Everyone and their grandmother is claiming to be a social media "expert" these days -- but are these experts really just snake oil salesman for the 21st century?

I certainly don't claim to be a social media "expert," although as a public relations executive I utilize social media on a… Continue

Epic Fail, Catholicism.


A 9 year old girl is brutally raped by her father, becomes pregnant with twins and aborts the child because the doctors said the pregnancy will surely kill her, as her body was far too tiny to sustain the stress. The Catholic Church's response: They call the little girl a murderer.

Thanks for the encouragement on the God and twitter discussion. I don't know why Chris opted to post that on my page rather than in the discussion. It was no more or no less goofy as his other comments. To each his own. =)

Elizabeth~ love your comments, love your input. :-) We need to meet up.

Elizabeth, I just read an article that quoted you and gave a part of your story. I have my own story but am not prepared to post it here. I've been on the obviously other side of where you've been. We have some common ground, you and I.

Hi, I just check out your co's website, sounds like a cool place. I love the reference to guard dog with the dog's picture. Very clever. I also read the Planned Parenthood posts, without their help, I could have been one of those unprepared teenage mothers. Good for you to defend what you think is important. Also the CKS reference - not Christ the King?

I just saw your tweet tweet on Governor low-life. He has no right to quote Kipling. How do these people get elected?

I just read some post regarding...oh, a bunch of crap...at which time you mentioned someone bringing a new meaning to "Smaller Indiana"...I agreed! I've said it numerous times, small minded indiana would sometimes be a better name for the site. I'm glad there are others who are bothered by small-minded people, as I am.

Read your post on Obama, and just wanted to say BRAVO. I received several calls during the campaign, questioning the authenticity. Glad that's over for now but it was mind-boggling.

I just wanted to say that i saw your posts regarding volunteerism and obama and your passion for the community is awesome. Good for you. I hope all is well

It has been a long time since I thought about the youth house! It's bittersweet that they tore down our cozy house and replaced it with a big, industrial gym.

Liz Friedland from CKS!? Has it been 10 years or some equally ridiculous amount of time? I'd love to hear what you are up to.
