Yeah, there’s an app for that, too.

The Greater Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce is the latest to get into the game, with MyChamberApp. It works with the usual suspects, such as the iPhone, iPod, Android and Blackberry.

The application has such things as locations, websites, phone numbers and GPS driving directions to businesses.

“We see it as an innovative approach to provide a shot in the arm to many local businesses and the economy,” said Roland Dorson, president of the Indianapolis chamber.

MyChamberApp also dovetails with the chamber’s green business initiative, Dorson said, because fewer maps will need to be printed for members as they increasingly use the new electronic feature.

  1. these guys only skill was to steal from other's hard earned savings.

  2. I voted for him last time and it WAS the LAST time. He needed to to quit running around the world on useless trips, and giving our $$ away to sports teams. I'll vote for anyone but Ballard next time. BTW...we gave $40M to the Pacers and cannot even watch the games on TV.

  3. For the people concerned about traffic, you should know that mixed-use projects (like the one being proposed), actually allows for and encourages more people to walk and bike, thereby mitigating additional automobile traffic. If we continue to design and build suburban-type projects in the City (i.e. automobile-oriented projects), we are not offering anything different from what the suburbs offer, which means we will continue to lose jobs/people to the suburbs. The reason Broad Ripple is somewhat successful today is that people want to live in a place that offers the convenience of being able to walk/bike to restaurants, retail, nightlife, the Monon, etc. Why would you not want to support a project that is complimentary to what already makes the area desirable? The real argument with this project should be its lack-luster design and layout, not the density.

  4. It is unfortunate that there is a perception that celebrities validate an event. The Indy 500 stands on its own, especially for those coming in from out of town. It was always so disturbing to read the gushing descriptions of Ashley Judd threaded throughout the local coverage. Very happy that era is at an end.

  5. Good ole' Obamacare. Thanks liberals and those who didn't bother to vote.
