What I Learned at Highlight Midwest #hm1
Bottom Line - if you don’t want to be “the best” - then get out. If you want to be the best then there is a huge, welcoming community waiting to help you get there. And yes, there are some really cool things happening in the midwest.

All in all, the whole day was a fantastic experience. I can’t tell you how happy I am to have been a part of this event, and to have met all these wonderful people and heard their stories.

Geeks, tweeps and entrepreneurs knock Highlight Midwest out of the park
My main takeaway from Highlight Midwest is that, in terms of Web and new media innovations, things are moving fast here in Flyover Country — very fast. Dozens of smart entrepreneurs are following their hearts and talents and creating amazing new products, despite everyone telling them they are crazy.
