Episode 54: The one where we gave away Startup Weekend Tickets

This week on PrairieCast our guest was Ben Milne, CEO and co-founder of Dwolla, who made his way down the stairs of the Midland Building to join us for the third time on the show. We talked about Dwolla's latest technology releases and Milne's upcoming travels to conference in Europe before launching into the news of the week. We also debuted a new segment "Looking Forward" at the best events in the region over the week ahead.

One other thing, BrownWinick graciously offered to let us give away two tickets that are sponsoring for the upcoming Startup Weekend in Omaha. We gave away one on the live show and saved one for you archive viewers this week. Watch the show to find out how to win one for yourself.
