  • Philadelphia Resident One of 150 Selected to Attend NASA Tweetup for Last Space Shuttle Launch  [Geekadelphia] As we’ve told you, today starts the big day for Shareef Jackson
  • My DuckDuckGo Twitter ad by the numbers [Gabriel Weinberg’s blog] Interesting insight from the founder of Valley Forge-based search engine Duck Duck Go.
  • Seriously. It’s not a “Philly Problem”. [Dangerously Awesome] Indy Hall Co-founder Alex Hillman on the ‘lack of talent’ in tech in Philly
  • Mayor Nutter Relaunches PhillyStat—the City’s Performance Management Program [City press release]
  •  “Flash mob” fall-out: A multiple-perspective account of the North Philly roving mob attack  [A.V. Club] Reports say this attack, which broke the leg of A.V. Club editor Emily Guendelsberger, was a good old fashioned mob, not having been brought on by social media or text messaging or the like, so questions of the ‘flash mob’ phrase have come into play.
