We've been sponsoring the Tech.MN news blog for some time now and it's
always been a great source for hearing about what's going on in the tech
community. One post of recent interest was Jeff Peseks article on the
most recent MinneDemo we sponsored. The videos are amazingly helpful.

Jeff hits' it right on. MinneDemo was held at St. Thomas this time
around and the location was fantastic. Once again, MinneDemo was sold
out in record time and we saw some great demos:

February 5th, 2011
We love Roller Derby!
The championship bout is over and the Rockits have claimed victory! The
Dagger Dolls entered the championship bout undefeated but lost their
momentum to the almighty Rockits! But wait! Just because the
championships are over doesn't mean the season is done! There is some
great derby action in February, when the Minnesota Rollergils All-Stars
take on the Tuscon Roller Derby.

The first All Stars event is Saturday February 5th, 2011. Derby begins
at 7:30.
