The people of Indiana have a new place to interact. Smaller Indiana takes local social networking to a new level, providing a place for members to share "ideas and engage with Indiana's most creative and inspired souls...working together to build community, culture and commerce."

Members have taken up the mantra in force. They have used the forums to create a classifieds section, posting jobs or their own resumes, with much more personalization and interaction than Craigslist would see. They've used blogs to debate issues, such as finding the line between promoting your business and spamming your friends and the usefulness of majoring in tourism. Many members also use blogs to make announcements, such as an upcoming high-tech conference.
