Talk about a feel good story of just helping people, and making a business out of it!  It in The D is one of those.  Bob and his friends wanted to find a networking group where they could meet like-minded IT people.  When they failed to fall upon one, they decided to start their own. 

IT in The D is now over 5,000 members, has a podcast with almost 2 million downloads, and they have helped over 1,000 people find jobs.  Not bad for just wanting to network.  Their company continues to evolve in more of a pull versus push fashion, and they're doing great things for the IT industry in Detroit.
