It's that time again, boys and girls. Time to register for Case Study Jam.

As per our strictly-adhered-to mandate, this month's jam features an awesome win, a work in progress and a fail we can all learn from. Namely:

• A win from independent financial advisor Randy Little, who went out on his own with a commitment to doing things differently. Building from the ground up, Randy has built his business by reaching out to the people of Ottawa almost entirely through his Twitter account.
• A work in progress from local realtor Jane Daly, who is not only using social media to expand her reach with buyers and sellers but she's also embracing open data principles and trying to find ways to make real estate data more accessible. 
• A fail from Chelsea Edgell that is probably best summed up in her own words: "It happened when I was hired to address a problem with environmentally unsound practices that were also a collosal waste of effort. Response to my proposal for a collaborative solution was one of such hyperbolic terror that I thought the higher-ups were joking when they removed me for my 'unorthodox approach.' They weren't."

Please note: This time around the event is moving slightly west and doing the funky foolish chicken. They don't offer the awesome German fare of the last venue but they do have a kick-ass pulled pork sammich and awesome fries. Oh, and it's far more transit friendly - Tunney's Pasture is mere steps away.
