Hi Pat,

Thank you for your support of small businesses and the Indiana Small Business Fair event May 11th.

Have a great week!

Pat, I'd like to help create something like http://ignitebloomington.com/ for http://www.igniteindianapolis.com/ -- what do you think? If I need to coordinate with anyone please put me in touch with them, otherwise I will start development this week. Thanks!

Sports Marketing? I have been interested in the profession for years. Please drop me a line on some advice as to how I can get started . Thanks, looking forward to hearing from you.

Do you have a 'rules' page for SI other than the general Ning TOS? I can't find it if you do. Looking to see what is / isn't ok for profile customization...

Pat,
I'm looking for a simpler way to invite my friends and gmail list to groups. As it is, everyone is already checked and I would need to uncheck 90% of them on most occassions. What am I doing wrong or missing? I would rather check those I want, than uncheck the many more.

hi, how are you

Pat,
I'd like to do something on SI, but at the same time I don't want to breach protocol as I have inadvertently done in the past.
Being a Shriner, I like to help out with Shrine Circus when and where I can. The circus publishes a program/childrens activity book (it has coloring pictures, clown "baseball-style" cards and word games in it) which is offers for sale at each performance. The activity book is printed via the ads in it. I'd like to offer SI members with businesses the opportunity to showcase there business with an ad in the activity book. Though I have seen things for sale on SI before, I don't know if those individuals were breaching protocol or not and I would prefer not to proceed blindly.
Is there a place in SI for offering these ad opportunities?
Thanks for your input.

Pat,

I just watched a few of the presentations from the Smaller Indiana conference a month ago. Scott Massey's, yours, David Forsell's, and a couple of others. I'm from NW Indiana, Kentland/Morocco, and other than HLFI I don't have much connection to Indianapolis. However, this is pretty intriguing stuff. I'm still trying to figure out the meaning(s) of Smaller Indiana. I understand the value of making connections and so forth, but there are some underlying principles that encourage me about your effort. I say underlying because I haven't seen/heard it stated, but there is a recognition that "prosperity" is given a new, better, meaning, and that the conventional meaning of "economic growth" might also be fine tuned. Given a couple of references to God and the spiritual side of life, I'm encouraged and would like to know more about the vision of this effort, and how small NW Indiana towns might be involved. I participated in some discussions on a general comment wall a week ago (Meridian Institute group), but I'd like to get a better understanding from the leaders if I might -here or by email.
