Last Tuesday I co-hosted a boat tweetup, thanks to @thelocaltourist, it was such a great time, we enjoyed amazing views of Chicago while enjoying the tastiest Mediterranean bites from Dawali and cupcakes from @GoddessGrocer. Guests walked away with a great goody bag too!
Thanks again to our sponsors, who filled those goody bags:

Last two weeks have been dedicated to using every power I have to spread awareness for social services agencies in my community. I’m sure most of you have heard about it from my facebook, twitter and the CNN iReport. I thought it would be great if all of the links for articles involved would be [...]

If you’re a Twitter addict, like me, then I’m sure you’ve noticed the many many many #sxsw tweets. Some of us stare and wish we were there. Others, like @CalebGardner and @RebeccaDenison decide to take matters into their own hands and host a #NotAtSXSW tweetup. It was a !!BRILLIANT!! idea. What’s even better is that [...]
