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.

We caught some crazy lightning over the Schuylkill Expressway with my iPhone and qik.com, on our way into Center City Philly earlier tonight.

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.

No Pulitzer Prize has ever gone to a more courageous, deserving, hard-working or dedicated duo than Barbara Laker and Wendy Ruderman of the Philadelphia Daily News, who took Investigative Reporting honors yesterday for their “Tainted Justice” report.
