I have only been back in town for a about a week, but long enough to slip under the wire for some sweet new Philly honors.
Thanks to Philly Mag‘s Philly Post – and the Technically Philly team - I found myself in the pack between a Miss Pennsylvania and an Eagles tight end today, all named among Philadelphia’s 10 Most Influential Twitter users.
Next, now that I am beginning to settle back into Center City life, I think it might be time to return to a little more blogging as well, perhaps even when I’m not blowing my own horn. Meanwhile, I have a few more plans in the works, and I am still in pursuit of some others, but hope to have some announcements soon.
Thanks again and congratulations to my fellow honorees.

It took me about five minutes to make this ego search report using http://www.youtube.com/searchstories
You could cut that investment in half with a little focus.
What is Ushahidi? from Ushahidi on Vimeo.
I caught the buzz around Ushahidi at SXSW last week, and in the New York Times, but had no clue to their reach until I spent some time at their site just now. http://www.ushahidi.com/
Could this be a clue to the future of news reporting as well? I will be keeping an eye on this.
