Support Your Local Coffee Shop!

Did you know there are more than 70 locally owned coffee shops in the Indy Metro area? And more importantly, do you know where they are?

Thanks to a post by Erik Deckers on I Chose Indy, I know how many, and where they all are! His comprehensive map lists address and pinpoints them on a Google map so you can plan your next coffee expedition.

Help the local economy, buy local! As Erik points out, for every dollar spent at a local business, $.40 stays in town. For every dollar spent at a national chain, only $.13 stays in town!

Raincast is the newest addition to the Rainmakers website. This new page features video of events, audio interviews with Rainmaker Leadership, and contributions by individual members. If you want a feel for the organization, go to the Raincast!

conceived by Dave Anderson of PinpointAV, the Raincast takes blogging to a whole new level.
