In the nick of time

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.

Live iPhone Video: Just Married!

Kathy and I had the great fortune of being surrounded by family and friends from around the world during our New Year’s Eve wedding in Philadelphia’s Old City.

During the ceremony, I handed my iPhone off to our friend George Miller, and – using ustream.tv and the Broadcaster app – we live-streamed our wedding to the world.

We didn’t get married in a disco, but it looked that way as a result of the flashing cameras, partly because so many of our friends are also photojournalists.

We feel so grateful to everyone! It was an incredible experience.

(You can see George at work at left and below. More photos and high-quality videos are pouring in from friends on Facebook at: http://www.facebook.com/jimmacmillan Friend me!)

Happy New Year!!!
