Twitterist: Philadelphia, In 140 Characters Or Less

We spend a lot of time on Twitter, doing our best to deliver a good mix of our headlines and real-time updates. And, in case you're not following us yet, or aren't on Twitter at all, you should know that ours is a very Twitter-friendly city.That's why we've decided to start a daily post lining up some of the more interesting tweets that fellow Phillyists have pushed out into the statusphere. In most cases, we leave the details to the original tweets, so click through, read, and follow your fellow Philadelphians. But, all alliteration aside, if you're on Twitter and we haven't found you yet, leave a link to your profile in the comments!
