Des Moines Hatchlings, a Facebook game billed as "the world's largest virtual Easter Egg hunt," published a blog post today detailing its attempts to collect on revenue from its disabled Google AdSense account. "After trying to go through the 'proper channels' for almost a year now it's time to share this story of how Google screwed over our startup with the world," Brad Dwyer, the company's co-founder and CEO, wrote. … read more

Des Moines Bio: A Des Moines native with entrepreneurial parents responsible for raising me with a strong work ethic and passion to build things. Constantly looking to listen and learn — from what music I should queue up to a great book or blog I should be reading. | Title: Lead Interactive Designer at Hatchlings | Age: 24 | City: Des Moines, Iowa | Website: hatchlings.com | Twitter: @lyndsayclark | Linkedin: linkedin.com/in/lyndsayclark/ | Intro music: I may be partial (my brother is in the band), but I can’t get enough of St. Lucia’s "We Got It Wrong." | Silicon Prairie News: You joined Hatchlings during what CEO Brad Dwyer calls a "re-startup" phase for the company.

Des Moines Beyond a shadow of a doubt, the Groundhog Day Silicon Prairie News Meetup with Hatchlings was quite the sight. Last Thursday, more than 70 people from the Des Moines startup community joined us to celebrate the big holiday.

Brad Dwyer, the CEO of Hatchlings, shared more about the “world's largest Easter Egg Hunt” and a bit about … read more

Des Moines With a projected high of 54 degrees in Des Moines today, it's hard to think tomorrow marks Groundhog Day, a day where many hope and pray the furry guy doesn't see a wintry shadow. Tomorrow night, Feb. 2 from 5-7 p.m. at Raccoon River, the spokesrodent from a related genus, Analog the Prairie Dog will have more on his mind than a shadow when he joins us for the Silicon Prairie News Meetup with Hatchlings. … read more

Des Moines On Feb. 2 the nation will prepare for a highly anticipated holiday of the year: Groundhog Day. Though it's safe to say that this Midwest winter has felt more like a Canadian summer, there's still an urge for us to hold out for a shadow. From 5-7 p.m. that night – shadow or no shadow – we'll celebrate Groundhog Day with a furry friend from a related genus, Analog the Prairie Dog, at the Silicon Prairie News Meetup … read more
