Since there was some talk about connecting people together from the Midwest in another thread, I started a new Optical Facebook group for all of you in the Midwest. Anyone in Optical who is a midwesterner can join. You can find the Midwest group here: http://www.facebook.com/groups/midwe...professionals/
I started a FB group for the Northwest a few years ago, and its now the third largest Optical group on Facebook (after ODs on Facebook & The Luxury Eyewear Forum). Its been a great tool to share job info, make friends, find CE events, and find frames and products. We worked together to get a couple of low income patients free eyewear. Tis been perfect to find volunteers for local charity events. And I think we have found positions for over 40 people/offices in last year alone for only 2 states. If your in the Northwest that FB group is here: http://www.facebook.com/groups/nwoptical/
Optiboard is awesome for many things, but its not very good for CE events and conventions. Facebook tends to stay Civil as well since their is less anominity. Just lettin ya all know.
