What the Hell Happened to the 2011 #NWITweetup Holiday Party

Written by finn on December 14, 2011 - 1 Comment
Categories: Notes

Once upon a time, #NWITweetup had its first annual Christmas / Holiday party. It involved free bowling and great friends. And it was good.

A year later, we had a second #NWITWeetup Christmas Party. It had free bowling and great friends. And it was good.

Come this year, we were planning to have an #NWITweetup Christmas Party. It was to have free bowling and great friends. It was to be awesome.

Then something happened…

A little all-eggs-in-a-couple baskets. A little management changeup at the venues we were at. A few projects also needed to come off the ground.

But We’re Patient

And since there are so many good #NWIndiana social media groups that have broken out that have parties, cookie exchanges & potlucks, we thought we’d back it up and, instead, have a Mid-Winter party.

We’re aiming for Late January / Early February.

Maybe some free bowling. Maybe some great friends. And prizes. Definitely prizes.

How does that sound?

Sincerely

- Finn

October 2011 #NWITweetup – Cornucopia Coffee Company

Categories: NWI Tweetups

As Daver and I started to talk about the user feedback and how we’re shaping up Tweetups going into this season, we started talking about our favorite places and events. This first place he said was, “Cornucopia Coffee Company. They had Gumball Head, wonderful architecture, great food and a PA system so I can be heard. And we spent so much time running around and preparing for the speakers that I didn’t get to enjoy it. Let’s go there. I want to really, really enjoy the place.”

Well, other than his reasonings for the PA system, I thought he was dead on.

Cornucopia Coffee Company has been the place I’ve rooted for this year. With an ambiance immersed in classic roots & rock music and open spacies, brick walls, high ceilings, restored wood floors, wonderful views of Lincolnway and great folks flooding in an out, CCC was designed to be part of the downtown community.

Is Governor Daniels Right about #NWIndiana? Fall 2011 Lunch & Learn

Written by finn on September 22, 2011 - 2 Comments

“Culturally close to Chicago in both economics and politics, and with a reputation for governmental corruption and labor union aggression, our northwest corner is a place employers are more likely to flee than invest in,”

- Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels, Keeping the Republic: Saving America by Trusting Americans. (source: NWITimes.com)

According to NWITimes.com, Governor Daniels says he has hope for Northwest Indiana despite the grim picture he paints in his book. He says it in the same way the OldOld Man says he has faith in the Chicago Cubs: he keeps watching but it ‘sure as Hell ain’t pretty right now.

Now those of us in Porter County could hang our hat on how the Governor singled out Valparaiso as a community that’s on the right track, but truth told, no matter how we try to make this look, we’re all a part of The Region. Our fates are entwined.

So, Is Governor Daniels Right?
