They met over the internet.
Well, kind of. Allie Ilagan (née Harcharek) ignored all of Mikey Ilagan’s emails, comments on her blog and his Twitter advances. That is, until they met at a mutual friend’s party.
The newly-minted Ilagans — Mikey runs the blog Geekadelphia and Allie writes for it — share their love story with Philly Mag.
