About Me:
I started Philly1.com in 1998. We began producing and streaming weekly video interviews in 2000. In 2002 we partnered with The Weekly Press and UC Review newspapers and while they both have their own independent websites now, we continue to have a strong and interactive relationship. Prior to our format change to NING, at its peak, Philly1.com averaged 70,000 unique visitors per month. Last April we encountered a problem with YAHOO! Website Services. They were totally unresponsive and all of our archival material remains inaccessible on our Yahoo server. Regardless of how hard we try or how many times we contact YAHOO! we receive no response. Philly1.com went dead for over 5 months. We're back and and I've just partnered with my friend Brian Stevenson and he is now Co-Director of the site. I know his energy will breathe new life into Philly1.com.
Why I Am Here:
i met her ... we have a lovechild and a dog. beyond that ... friends.

Favorite Restaurants:
we order in a lot. love the neighborhood spots but perhaps my current favorite restaurant in town is amada in olde city. for pizza we love cravings on chestnut next to the state store. the pad thai shack for singapore curry noodles, mamma's for falafel, genji for the occasional raw quail egg and salmon row, audrey claire for upscale homey american/north african, marathon for comfort and convenience, and tinto too. the cresheim cottage in chestnut hill is also a favorite.

Business is ok. We love our new location. In our second year, we are really coming into our own. We find that there is less traffic to our store than when it was on Walnut Street but the traffic that is coming to us, is a higher quality traffic. We find that to be very good.

Thanks Harry!
