I got the chance to tour the Qwiki office and chat with some of the developers. This is more than an app, it’s a move to get back to what matters…the story. Before you ever produce a video you should really figure out what it is you are trying to say.

Study: Minneapolis is sixth most creative economy
The Minneapolis Creative Index 2013 isn’t the first report to point out the above-average contributions of artistic and other creative professions to the local economy. But it is different than predecessors in that it focuses on all creative jobs, including graphic designers, photographers and architects, whether they are nonprofit or for-profit, and identifies those jobholders based on what they listed on their income-tax returns.
But here’s one for the “who knew” department: Retail sales in the city’s creative economy — meaning ticket sales to performances, locally created artwork and photography and the like — are about 70 percent of the size of retail from the sports economy.
Other findings: Creative jobs make up five percent of the city’s total workforce (20,000). Performing-arts revenues are nearly 10 times the national average, with per-capita theater revenues even higher, 14 times the national average. Nonprofit arts organizations receive more than 13 times the average in charitable giving.
But what you non-numbercrunchers really want to know is, who beat us and who’d we beat? Ahead of us are Washington, D.C., New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Boston, but we inched ahead of our artsy West-Coast rivals Seattle and Portland, as well as Austin, Texas. And all hail our neighbor to the north Duluth, which rolls in at no. 35, not bad for a smaller city.
