A Literal Minnesota Movement
Make It. MSP. is a collective effort of Greater MSP, various makers groups and other involved community members to create a destination for people who are considering making the Twin Cities their new home. #MakeItMSP started trending on Tuesday. Why, do you ask? They held a press conference announcing the official launch of #MakeItMSP. Utilize the tool to encourage all of your long distance friends to move here. Because “Minnesota has seasons and it’s delightful” isn’t always the most convincing argument.

Go ahead, read Dorsey’s letter to employees. It’s longer than 140 characters.
Designer of Target’s Newest Fashion Collaboration: Qui moi?
